9. I realize that is a natural reaction and I am glad for you... But I hope our expats won't unleash this reaction too much

Some will have the resources $$$ and situational opportunity to join you somewhere outside the US, but most of us do not have the option for multiple reasons. We are going to have to cope and probably suffer. Some may suffer in ways we had never predicted.

So, I appreciate how you are feeling. And, I don't blame you for both feeling that relief and expressing it. But please (I say this to all expats) be sensitive to those of us who are stuck and will have to take up the fight in one way or another--including those not physically able to literally "fight." We, at least need your virtual support.
