Ready for change?


Today was a good day for voting. Regardless of what I voted for it is fun to vote. People always seem to "Boo" others who don't vote. I say "Boo" to them. People have just as much right not to vote as we do to vote. Many solders died so we can choose not to vote if we want, but they died so we can vote as well. Also I like to get the sticker that says "I Voted". It allows others to confront me and ask who I voted for, and what I voted on without them feeling like they are stepping through my comfort zone. That situation typically doesn't turn into a heated debate, just a thought provoking conversation.
Today was a monumental day, the first African-American president. How exiting it was to see. Like seeing the first African-American Base ball player, or Lawyer. It will definitely stick with me, and I will forever remember where I was and what I was doing. I can only hope God blesses him as he serves as the president of the united states. Something only a hand full of people get to do, and will ever do.
I hope this day will inspire you and the rest of the world to change for the better, whether it is voting next time, or embracing some one you didn't vote for with the love of God. If you never thought you could become someone the world looked up to, or if you find out greatness wasn't meant for you, let's move forward together. We all need to change. Even if it's just a little.
