Just Breathe

A lot of people were shocked while watching the outcome of the presidential elections. Nobody was more shocked than the president-elect himself, Mr. Donald Trump. Ever since he was announced the winner it seems like a lot of people are worried, afraid and confused. And asking what they should do next.

The answer is to turn off your televisions, hold back on social media and just simply live your life. Be kind to your neighbors and have faith that everything happens for a reason. As a journalist, I am the first to admit that media instills fear into your life. How do you think Trump got this far anyways? He played on people's fears. And now that's what's happening in the aftermath as well. He didn't create racism. It has always existed.

Trump will soon realize, if he hasn't already, that this is not reality tv and that real life has rules and regulations. This is not a circus of a show where he can just snap his fingers and say 'you're fired' and make a whole group of people, a whole race, a whole religion disappear. The look on his face after his Government 101 meeting with Obama said it all.

Like I said, everything happens for a reason. Can we just stop and think for a moment what would have happened if he wasn't elected? His group of supporters would have entered an even scarier state of mind. Trump would have gotten his own television channel. And indefinitely played with those emotions. That's when we all should have really been afraid.

But at this stage, everything will die down after a couple of weeks maximum. Trump will learn that he has to follow rules. This system that elected him is going to be his biggest life lesson as well.

So everybody just calm down, take a deep breath and remember that God's power is greater than an oompa loompas'. I am very proud and very happy to be living in this country and if he were to deport me back to my hometown of Atlanta, Georgia, I will not take it easily. :) 

Love for all.
