I can't stand whining. I can't stand the kind of paralysis that some people fall into because they're not happy with the choices they've made. You live in a time when there are endless choices ... Money certainly helps, and having that kind of financial privilege goes a long way, but you don't even have to have money for it. But you have to work on yourself ... Do something!

I don't want to get into some sort of back-and-forth on insults because that just drags everybody down.

Not everyone can march, but everyone can talk. And everyone can reach out, and everyone can vote.
