I’ve noticed that every election brings hope and despair to America. So I bring you words of hope and strength.
We were deeply wounded by both Pearl Harbor and 9-11. The world thought we would be brought to our knees, and so did many Americans. They were wrong then and would be wrong now. We are a strong and resourceful people. Our strength allows us to build and keep moving forward. President Roosevelt once stated that we have nothing to fear but fear itself. He was so right. We are still that same people. Yes, our leaders change, sometimes for the better, sometimes not. But that’s not the point of our country because that power doesn’t come to us through them. Theirs comes to them through us. Stay involved. Be proud of America. Part of our history has come to us because of moral strength, which can overpower weak leadership.
Don’t give in to despair. We are better than that. Learn about the traditional values of years gone by. They have much to say to us today.
Live your life with joy and positivity.
June Simon, Torrance
