Profound and Sometimes Preposterous Ponderings of Pete

So Donald Trump will be sworn in tomorrow. I did not vote for him.  Many of my friends did. I did not vote for Hillary Clinton either. My family might have. I did vote.  So my candidate did not win.  What now? Doomsday wailing? Should I riot?  Should I threaten the lives of celebrities and their families for considering performing at the inaugural?

Awaken church and save our wards, not with anger nor with swords. But with all the love that He showed, on the cross where His blood flowed.
