Dallas, perhaps. But to do nothing is to signify tacet consent. Your post implied that people shouldn’t be upset—it’s just politics as usual. And, I think most people believe it’s gone past that point. Communists in the White House? Look how much has changed since the McCarthy trials, when being red was a ‘bad thing!’ Now it’s acceptable and ‘no big deal.’
We live in a dangerous world, and many of us are dealing with this new world in our own way. I don’t deny that I have had other issues in my life, some that many would consider tragic, but I can honestly say that I have never, ever manifested such concern in my sleep for such a long period of time. In fact, I did a search this morning for the meaning of these end of the world dreams, and I found scores of other people who have been having the same dream in the past six months asking what they mean on various forums out there. So, it isn’t just me.
I understand that anxiety in our lives manifests itself in our sleep, and I’m frustrated and angry that I’m having to live like this because this president frightens me. I’m certain I’m not crazy because I feel this way. Seems like I read recently an open letter to President Obama from a certain respected businessman, Lou Pritchett, who confessed the same thing.
I have a wonderful faith and hope in God and believe in His infinite power to save and heal. But, I will not deny my anger nor my fear for what this administration is doing to the country my parents and grandparents fought for and what I hoped was being left for my children. Nor will I apologize for it.
Certainly, you owe no one an apology for your anxiety. Nor am I minimizing it in any way but re reading my original post to you I can see that it could be misconstued in that way and I do apologize for that. And yes, you should certainly put your faith in God and prayer. I do hope for peace of mind for you. I know how exhausting this kind of anxiety in your sleep can be and I feel terrible for you. Please take care, find peace and have faith. I apologize again for making you feel as though I was trivializing your problem in any way.
That's "tacit".
Speaking of intelligence, Einstein.
