Hello Friends!
Today I would like to discuss a bit about the upcoming November Voting. Oh fun. Oh hurray. I'm pretty sure that's what you're thinking. Well, me too. Something needs to be said and then we'll leave it at that. It seems as if it's not about issues, just Democrats vs. Republicans. Last week one party is favored over the other, this week the other party is in the lead, next week who knows? It's a war of who can throw a stinger that will outbeat the other party in reviews.
It seems as if nothing is held back and hate is rampant. Give me a break!....
Everyone is having a hard time with the things that are going on in the world. No one is exempt. I believe that in order for us to make the appropriate changes we have to look individually at each candidate and see what that person is about. We need to look at what that person has done in the past, their promises for the future, their goals. We have to ask if that person represents our values and would be a good representative of ourselves. I truly don't believe that good results will happen if it's 100 percent Republican or 100 percent Democrat.
I believe there needs to be a mixture in order that all of our views will be represented.
We have to do some studying on the opponents. Hear their views, and make our choices. Each of us has the freedom to vote our own choice. Don't vote for somebody because that's the person your mom & grandma are voting for, and they told you to. Don't vote for somebody because that's The Party that your family has voted for, for the last 6 generations. This is your time, your vote. Totally private. No one will know what you vote unless you tell them. I won't sit here and tell you who to vote for. All I'm saying is YOUR VOTE COUNTS! Once it's all done, it's done, and so are my (self-proclaimed) words of wisdom on the subject.*
A high school senior honored as one of the "Best & Brightest" in his community has provided a forceful demonstration of integrity. When his school team was given the word 'auditorium' in a regional spelling bee, Brady Davis glanced down to ponder his response and noticed that the word was printed on the microphone stand. He called this to the attention of the judges who responded with a more difficult word. Brady did what he knew was right whether others noticed it or not. We don't know when our actions might become an example to others, but if we live each day to honor Jesus, our behavior will model His righteousness, no matter who is watching. Brady Davis says his goal in life is to change the world around him while never compromising himself. We would do well to join him in that pursuit of life, integrity, and exemplary behavior.*
There's 61 Days until Christmas.* I want you all to remember how much I care and I'll be back again with more very soon! Be good to yourselves. -Missygirl
