Dangling by a Thread - a photo on Flickriver

            I'm not sure if I believe in prayer or a higher power but I have found myself praying just in case. 

These days, I am praying for the refugees who were granted asylum by Biden but are now being deported by Trump.  

I am praying for the children who don't feel safe at school.  Maybe they have never felt safe at school because of school shooters but now they fear their own government more, even if they were born here. They can't concentrate and learn thinking that they might go home to find they no longer have parents. 

I am praying for the people who can no longer pray in their place of worship because there are no safe spaces for them anymore, despite existing in a country who claims to value religion with.a leader they see as the second coming of Christ, even though he bears no remote similarities to him.

I am praying for the people who had the very unlucky circumstance of being born in a country under turmoil, not white, not wealthy, and struggling to survive from the moment they breathed.  They find themselves in a country who claims to value life but their life is not valued at all.  They are seen as the enemies while Proud Boys go free and wreak havoc.

We don't have to live this way.
