I Will Take the High Road for Four Years

This is a day that I was not expecting to happen.  I did not think that Joe Biden would win the 2020 election, or sworn in today, January 20, 2021 as the President of the United States.  This brings so many different emotions to the forefront, that it is hard to put into words.  Despite those emotions and feelings I am having, I have decided to take the high road for the next four years.

​What does that mean, you may ask?  I have to look to who I am as a person.  Above anything else in my life, I am a Christian.  I believe what the Bible says.  I trust God.  I know that God has a plan for everything, despite if I agree with it or not, or do not like it.  God is all knowledge, and who am I to question Him, even though I do ask "why" at times.  

I could choose to be angry, bitter, or treat everything related to Joe Biden with utter distain, but that is not who I am.  I go back to when President Trump was sworn in as President.  The vile things that were already being said about him, before he even started to do his job, were horrible.  I understand that people do not agree politically at times, but this was a new level of hatred.  Things that people did not say about a World Leader, out of respect for the office, were being shared in the open, and by our own elected officials.  This did not stop during Trump's entire Presidency.  This was so heartbreaking to me.

Despite all of the lies and media attacks that were spread about Trump, Trump accomplished every political promise that he made.  I learned that getting ahead in life comes from persistence and drive, and not letting negativity control you.  I refuse to get sucked into what the leftist media wants all Conservatives to get sucked into, which is being filled with hate, just like them.  They would love to laugh and ridicule us, while shouting "Biden is your President" and "Trump is gone."  I will never be like them.  That hatred is not in my heart, so there is no way I could spread that.

For the next four years, I will continue to point out the accomplishments of President Trump, and how he helped the American people.  I will point out, all of the things that Joe Biden does as well, whether good or bad, because the public deserves to hear news that is the truth.  There is a little place inside of me, that if I let it, could be pulled onto the bandwagon of stating things like "Not My President."  I have never been a part of groupthink.  I have always been an individual, which is a huge risk to make yourself vulnerable for attacks from people who do not agree with you.  Despite that, I continue to put the truth message out to the public.

I would encourage everyone, on all sides of the political isle, to stop listening to hate.  You will not be hearing any hate toward President Biden on the main stream media, like you did for Trump.  No matter what he does, that will not happen.  This is not reality.  No person is perfect, and they make mistakes.  There will still be hate, but most of the hate you will hear from the main stream media, will be hatred toward anyone who supported President Trump.  This will be for social media as well.  When people have hate in their hearts, they have to release it somewhere.  Without Trump, his supporters are the next best option.  I would hope that Joe Biden, with his "Unity" message, will try to unite his own party, because some of their utter distain for anyone who is a Conservative, will never unite this country.

I would hope after reading this, you do not necessarily have to agree with me, or act or feel the way that I do, but take the time to think about how you can be a positive light in the next four years.
