I keep having this fantasy that one day I’ll wake up and everything will be back to normal.
That we will elect a normal, rational, sane, and ethical president.
That the pandemic will be over and we can eschew wearing protective masks and maintaining social distancing.
That we can return to and accentuate living together in peace and harmony, regardless of race, gender identity, religion, or national origin…or even political ideology.
That we can put aside petty jealousy and bring out the best in one another.
Who am I kidding? I might as well be fantasizing about rainbows and unicorns.
Written for these daily prompts: Ragtag Daily Prompt (fantasy), Word of the Day Challenge (elect), Your Daily Word Prompt (eschew), Fandango’s One-Word Challenge (accentuate), and The Daily Spur (jealousy).
There are really rainbows. I think the unicorns are gone, however.

When there is a third (or more) option for voters, when the air is clear, when all people are treated equally with the same access to health and social structures …
Yeah, sorry, you’re better off dreaming of unicorns and clean seas.

I so badly want us to start treating each other respectfully, no matter our differences. I miss that terribly. It can’t happen – till bigger change happens, sadly. Hoping that change will come soon!

Fandango…speaking frankly as someone who didn’t vote for the current uk government and saw their enabler lauded by your current president…quick question….what colour do you want your unicorn ?

I want my unicorn to be blue and for the rainbow to be blue and for the wave of votes to be blue. In case you don’t already know this, in U.S. politics blue is the color of the Democratic Party and red is the color of the Republican Party.
