Good evening everyone and welcome to The Magical Mystery
Blog.
Tomorrow marks the rise of a man I never thought would
become our president. A man who has implied that he would have relations with
his daughter, a person so persistent to shape the country in his image
regardless of the damage it will bring, a being so vile and uninformed, that
his cabinet is filled with people sharing his unfortunate attributes. I think
we all know who I’m referring to and it’s incredibly terrifying to know that we
have come this far in this election.
There have been rumors escalating of Trump eliminating
the National Arts Program. It’s even
more horrifying to know that this program, along with the tons of others, would
be cut. Destroying the National Arts Program, defunding Planned Parenthood,
demolishing NASA’s global warming research. These are all notions he wishes to
execute for whatever reason he believes. It’s a mortifying transition, but we
need to hold on and live the best way we can. I have never delved into
politics, but now I honestly wonder: why did we allow this to happen? What more
could we have done than to vote and protest our beliefs in this world?
I still don’t understand how it’s come to this. What choice
do we have but to live with it and try to voice our opinion when we can? We
have a right to our voices – Trump cannot take this away from us. We can craft
art without funding and do what we can to make it amazing in our (and hopefully
others’) eyes. We can still retain our beliefs and facts and absolute science
that global warming is real. Our health is something that we so desperately
need to survive in this cruel world with the short lives we have. We will
accept the best health there is in this newfound Trumpland that we are being
plunged into.
We must remember that no one can take ourselves away
regardless of our gender, sexual orientation, and who we firmly believe we are.
Not even someone as ungodly powerful as Trump can break us or tell us who to
be. We know who we are, so let’s embrace them wholeheartedly. From this, we can
gather any strength we can, to walk on through life in these years to come. Be strong and be ourselves – it’s a way to
live for the better, despite what the future may bring.
