We Chose Hope

11/7/20 Vice President-elect Kamala Harris (live video)

Saturday night I slept well for the first time in weeks and woke in the morning without the familiar dread. I did not join the partying in the streets that I saw on TV, nor did I shoot off firecrackers as some of my neighbors did. But I was with them all in spirit.

We chose hope. And it feels good to be hopeful again.

Hope feels good!

  2. I took me a while to recall the name of your blog. i had to go to Flickr and search for your art. then I just kept searching on the web for blogs that contained art with your name. Whew! I found it again. Glad I did. Love the message and art here. I am so RELIEVED Biden won. I cried with relief and hope to purge that other darkness through sketching and playing music. (I am Lainey1 on Flickr, by the way.) https://www.flickr.com/photos/lainer/

    1. Thank you for finding me! (I always put my blog link in the description of each Flickr post, but I guess that's not visible when looking at only the thumbnails.)

  3. I love the quotes you added to the sketches. It was a very emotional time and thank God that it had a good outcome. I can breathe a little easier, although like you I know there is a lot of work to do. Here's to better days!!!

    1. Yes, very emotional... I think we've all been tense for so long that this outcome was a huge release!
