A Cocoon of Sadness

Sadness is enveloping me in a cocoon from which I cannot emerge. So much hatred. So much bigotry. So much racism. So much anger. 

The Pledge of Allegiance says: 

"I pledge allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America, and to the republic for which it stands, one Nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all."

So many people think this should be said everyday at school, at all public sporting events, etc. I wonder if it is being repeated too much. Maybe we no longer hear what we are saying.

One Nation - All one, not divided by race, religion, nationality.

Under God - Granted this was added in 1954 but it was added. Don't think what is going on in this country is very God-like.

With liberty and justice for all - Not just for Christians, not just for white males, not just for "true Americans" (whoever they may be other than Native Americans.) 

Yes, I am also angry. I am angry that I have feelings of hate at the people who are hating. I am angry that I was so naive to believe the citizens of this country were better than this; that I was better than this. A lot of people aren't surprised at what is happening. I am. Sure I knew there would be dissent but never this. 

I am hoping and praying that enough level-headed, Love filled, Lightworkers can bring about a miracle. 

I shall start with me. Tonight I shall surround everyone, including me, with a bubble of Love, especially those who are so angry and hateful they feel they must retaliate in vengeful ways that cause harm.

Please join me.

Peace and blessings,

Mareda
