Hope

I truly cannot believe I am seeing an event such as this in my lifetime.

Before I started teaching, before I realized what a hot mess some parents make of their kids, before I saw in my classroom the result of need, of want, of neglect, before I realized what we are doing to our environment and the simple things we can do to combat the destruction...I was a Republican.

I am ready for CHANGE, and I am feeling the elusive emotion of HOPE.
