This quote from Aeschylus is one of my favorites, and I feel like it applies to our country now. “Even in our sleep, pain which cannot forget falls drop by drop upon the heart until, in our own despair, against our will, comes wisdom through the awful grace of God.”

Despair for a while, if that is healing, then let's get up off the floor and get to work. There is a democracy to exercise while we still have it, and it's what we DO in the next 8 months that will write our legacy in the books of history.

I would also ask that we consider what we say and how it contributes to the divisiveness of this campaign season.. how we can use language to bring each other together, not inspire each other to move further apart. Because coming *together* as a nation is the antidote here.
