Best way I've seen a dad tell his kid about the election

I wish that I had the presence of mind to write this note.  It hits everything I wanted to say to my son.  (I said some of it.  I told him the world wouldn't end, and that we had to continue on.  )  

But I didn't say it so eloquently.

This was found on Pantsuit Nation, and I don't know who originally wrote it.  If you do, please let me know, and I will attribute it properly.
