It was rather heartening to hear as it seems to have been so long since the last time. The nice lady seemed a genuinely positive soul , all beemy and bubbly and if those are actually words I’ll use them as her descriptive . She’d recently visited Europe and told us all about how much she enjoyed herself there and that was evident by how she described the sights and flattered Europe no end. And then she said it …
“ But I still feel blessed to be able to live in such a wonderful country like this one “
I stood there and took that statement in , completely refreshed by someone who obviously felt there was no need to make America great again as she’d never doubted it in the first place . It was more than obvious that in her eyes America was never anything but exactly that . I do realize that for many there are conflicting ideas about what makes America great and that’s what I was thinking right then . And then she said it …..
“ I mean , where else on the planet could I carry a gun in my purse for protection . “
I couldn’t help it, I had to laugh …… “ Where indeed “
