November 7th 2024
I feel lost, hopeless, sad, scared, alone. I don't know what the future is going to hold for me. I am terrified. What does my future hold? Will I have a future? I don't even know at this point. It's terrifying. The ball is in my court. This is my future and the futures of everyone else I care about at stake here. I'm going to fight. Fight for everyone I care about. Maybe not physically, but I can fight with my words, my writing, my passion. That is what it means to be alive in dangerous circumstances. I won't back down, the people I love and their rights are at stake here.
My advice to all the young people, those too young to vote, to have your voice be heard, those of you who are scared by this. I understand. I am only 18 years old, my first time voting was not even two weeks ago. I knew living in a red state like this my voice would not be heard, but it didn't stop me from trying. You are not alone, you have people surrounding you who love and care about you so much, you just need to reach out to these people and work together, to uplift each other, to be there for your peers. These next four years are terrifying and uncertain, but if we're there for each other, it can be a whole lot less terrifying and uncertain.
