Star light, star bright,
The shiniest star I see tonight.
I wish I may,
I wish I might,
Spend my time with you tonight.

Standing there among those stars,
I long to be where you are.

Every day, we all get asked the same question.
By friends, family, strangers and co-workers alike.
"How's it going?"
"How is your day?"
I ask it too, and most likely so do you.

It's a pretty strange thing to say.

I am an American.
I am not a proud one. I haven't been since I was ten years old.

Being real, it's hard to see how anyone is.
It's not really a secret that the United States is self-destructing right now.

I have often heard people say;
"When life gives you lemons, you make lemonade!"
And I was thinking about it today,
When I realized it isn't as simple as they say.

To make lemonade, you need more than the fruit.

Is it child abuse?
For the parents of a girl to support her starting puberty blockers, and later estrogen.
Before when she would never speak, wear layers and layers even during hot summer, and draw her hood so tight it was painful.

Did she really have a choice?
When she found out that the egg she had fought so hard for embedded in her fallopian tube.
Was it really a choice when the other option was death?

Did he really have a choice?
