i will read for peace of mind, oh america, you constant disappointment

After Pennsylvania flipped, I turned the tv off and haven't turned it on since then. 

Oh America, you constant disappointment. From the shores of Africa to the bayous of Louisiana, to the promised North- I've seen every facet of hate this country has to show. It showed it's true red, white, and blue this past Tuesday.

Reading has always been a solace. A safe place to grapple with the ancient meaning of existence and a shared consciousness with humanity. 

I'll use it to help heal my frustrated heart.

I wrote more and then I deleted it. I'm not sure who reads this and I won't pour my heart out here for entertainment. I don't really receive comments so this site is more of a book diary for me than a community of readers, so it doesn't make since to showcase my vulnerabiilty.

However, if like me you need some peace... you can find it in the great works of literature. 

It's fine. It's okay. Time is ticking....
