Are you going to look at the glass as half full or as half empty? Because if it’s half empty that’s a negative view of life, that’s where too many of our political leaders come from and all it does is serve their, I think, nefarious agenda to divide us and to say you’re a victim, you’re always going to be a victim, and the other people are the oppressors and so you need us.

Early on in the pandemic, the hospital was pretty empty. There weren't a lot of traumas, other acute injuries or medical concerns. Unfortunately, with the pandemic -- and this is true for both pediatric patients and adults -- a lot of people kind of deferred or waited to get medical care for different concerns because of fear of the pandemic, now, we're seeing the after-effects, where we have a lot of patients admitted right now for a lot of other acute medical concerns and a lot of kids admitted with Covid on top of that. So there are just a lot of patients in the hospital.

**(c)(p) PEOPLE LOVE TO ASK-WHERE DO WE GO FROM HERE? THIS QUESTION OF MORTALITY SEEMS SO PREVALENT IN THESE LATTER DAYS. SO I ASK-WHAT IS DYING? ITS NOTHING MORE THAN JUST LEAVING AN EMPTY SPACE-WHICH MAY/MAY NOT BE FILLED, EVER. THERE IS A VOID WHICH FOLLOWS EVERY BEING. ITS THE ABSENCE OF YOUR BEING-NOT BEING HERE-IN THE PASSAGE OF TIME. IT BECOMES THE ABSENCE OF TIME ITSELF WHICH NO MORTAL HAS CONTROL OVER.

It’s pathetic to see Terry McAuliffe recycle the same old empty promises, failed policies, and dishonest attacks that he’s been repeating for 12 years, now, McAuliffe wants to suppress and silence parents so his special interest allies can force their radical political agenda into classrooms and tell children what to think instead of teaching them how to think. Virginia parents are supporting Glenn Youngkin because he listens to them, respects them, and will restore excellence to our schools, raise teacher pay, and invest in the largest education budget in Virginia history.

To all those people who think they are worthless... I wish you could only count the amount of people who hurt you on one hand, but that is not the case. How many people have betrayed you and left you feeling empty? It doesn’t matter if you can fill two hands with names or just a few fingers, because the weight and pain of this hurt can last for a very long time. After so many attempts at trying to give your best to others, they somehow always walk all over you. It’s time to stop letting others determine your worth. It’s time to stop letting others walk all over you. It’s time to stop giving others the power to control your emotions. You are worth more than gold. Your beauty shines brighter than all of the stars in the sky. Your heart is deeper than the deepest ocean. Far within the corners of your mind, you know all of this is so true — you just need to accept it and live it. I am here to tell you that the people who make you feel worthless are not worth a millisecond of your time. You know what is best for yourself, and sacrificing your happiness for the sake of someone else is not what is best for you. As much of a selfless person you are, you can no longer ignore the red flags when they show up in a relationship. You are so incredibly worthy of giving and receiving the best love. Do not settle for less. You do not deserve less. After everything you have gone through — the mornings it was so hard to get out of bed and the nights you were paralyzed with self-doubt — you deserve to focus on yourself. You and I both know how easy it is to get sucked right into the deep dark hole that is filled with self-doubt and self-loathing, but having climbed out of that hole myself, I can confidently say that falling into it is no longer daunting. I know my way out, and you will too. Realizing your worth will not be a quick process but rather a very crucial journey. It took me years of being hurt and treated poorly to truly understand that all of those people who treated me poorly simply did not see my worth. But I am here. I am worthy, and I always have been. And so have you. What most of us fail to realize is that even though people may not treat us right, we shouldn’t blame ourselves for their actions. They treated you poorly because they simply don’t know how to properly treat someone as amazing as you. You are not at fault for the way someone treated you. But sometimes life is cruel and unfair, and it seems like there is no possible way to get through it, but there is. There is a light at the end of that tunnel, even if you have to walk along the dark for a while. But instead of turning around and getting lost in the darkness, keep on moving forward and eventually you will find a way to cope. Because life always finds a way.

A lot of our veterans and their families have gone through hell -- deployment after deployment, months and years away from their families ; missed birthdays, anniversaries ; empty chairs at holidays ; financial struggles ; divorces ; loss of limbs ; traumatic brain injury ; post-traumatic stress. We see it in the struggles many have when they come home. We see it in the strain on their families and caregivers. We see it in the strain of their families when they're not there. We see it in the grief borne by their survivors. The cost of war they will carry with them their whole lives, most tragically, we see it in the shocking and stunning statistic that should give pause to anyone who thinks war can ever be low-grade, low-risk or low-cost : Eighteen veterans, on average, who die by suicide every single day in America -- not in a far-off place, but right here in America.
