Silently clapping. I think we are all hurting like you. You always say it so well. It is a brief time to watch and wait, but we do need to right this course very soon. Liberty will out, but what will we have to go through to get there? Please Gd have mercy on us all.
I fear there may a be a great 'discomfort' coming, but as you say, Liberty will out. Who knows what forms that discomfort will take?
Our forebears could probably shed a bit of light on such things, but I think they'd also say, "It'll be worth it, kid."
