The Avett Brothers
Head Full of Doubt/Road Full of Promise
And your life doesn’t change by the man that’s elected
If you’re loved by someone you’re never rejected
Decide what to be and go be it.
These lines from the song are a lifeline to cling to in this pre-election malestrom.
I don't necessarily agree with the first line, because as history shows, a president's decision will certainly affect your life, as well as the whole world. Enough said. How about we let the politicians sling mud for the next few months, while we enjoy our lives. Mud fights are better left for the dirty players.
The second line of this states what every living being wants: to be loved for who you are.
And the last line reminds me of George Elliot's quote that, it's never too late to be who you might have been.
Can somebody give me an "amen" to that!
