Today
With any election all you can do is be true to yourself, your beliefs and remain loyal to those who you feel could represent what you represent. Mr. Obama won this presidential race fairly and I would like to congratulate him and everyone who supported him. History was in fact made and I am sure that today is not only an emotional moment for the USA but with the African American community who felt that they’d never see such a day. Indeed, this moment is historic and to have any one of us alive to experience this is moving and a blessing.
Though Mr. Obama was NOT my presidential choice, I am happy that I remained firm on my beliefs and my choices. There are no wrong or right choices, only differences in opinions. To be able to live in a country that allows us the ability to vocally support one candidate or the other is a privilege that many in the world will never know. This is why VOTING is so important. To vote means that your voice matters, unlike many other countries where the civilians have to deal with the cards that they are dealt and in many cases killed for trying to voice any opinion other than the one they are told they have to have. Let’s take this opportunity to take in just how blessed we truly are.
With all that is happening today, November 5th, 2008 it just goes to show that no matter what your odds are ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE.
Never forget GOD, your creator of life.
