Thoughts

Two posts in one week! It is a miracle. As I looked back over my blog it was fun to remember the things I have done the past little while, so I am definitely going to try to do more, so I can reflect back. I know that nobody probably even reads this anymore.

This week with the midterm elections, I have thought alot about my beliefs and gratitude. We have the amazing privilege to live in a country where we have choice. Many times our vote won't affect the decision of the population, but we have a voice! In talking to Marko this week, we have many differences about politics, yet we both are able to talk and learn so much from each other. This is what makes this country so great and so blessed. That we can all have different perspectives, values, opinions, but if we all can open our minds to other opinions we can learn and have respect for one another. I am grateful for friends, freedom and the right to choose!

totally agree! We all have different ideas and beliefs. I sure wish my sister in law would see it that way. You say one thing that she does not believe in.. you are banned and turned into un-christian and racist. Happy to hear some people are open minded and you are awesome! that is all! :-)
