I can’t say that I was ever into politics. I have always
felt it is a landscape of “dis” - dissection and distrust working to dissolve our
unity.
And I’ve pretty much had it.
Politics survives on blinded masses and lemming thinking, no
matter what view a person takes. We are all headed to the cliff. Individuality
is stripped away and anger is refinished.
This year is no exception. I hear of walls and hate and
accusations but hear nothing of what we have in common to build upon. We stand
back to back, with word ready pistols. Politics isn’t about coming together. It’s
about drawing from the hip.
I am not voting this year – either locally or nationally. Voting
has become nothing more than expressing a grudge. By not voting I am not wasting
my vote. I am expressing my opinion that I am tired of it all.
Sometimes I think what if no one would vote and no one would
be elected. We’d then have no one to blame for our dislikes. There would be no
scapegoat. We’d have no excuses. We would be forced to carry our country by ourselves
and it would take all of us working together.
Unfortunately, this country has fallen on excuses, finger
pointing, and hate, rather than shared responsibility.
The melting pot has separated at the boil.
