Vote.

This has been brewing in my head for sometime; I just needed a quiet moment to get my thoughts laid out right. I was going to give my opinion on various candidates, but have since changed my mind. Here is how I will always vote.

*I will ALWAYS vote life over death; never will I cast a ballot for a pro-choice candidate. Having given birth to two children, in addition to studying God’s word, it is inexplicably obvious to me that life begins at conception. I always think about the 3 times we were told that MH was dead and that I would need to have a D&C, only to have that heart continue to beat. She was alive inside me, a most perfect, treasured gift from God. She was alive because God gave her life, a life that he planned.
*I will always vote for character over empty promises. In today’s world everything is uncertain, the world today is so different from just 3 months ago. In times of trial, ones true character always comes out (you know, the who you are when you think no one is looking.) The best predictor of future behavior is past behavior (right Dr. Phil?)
*Morals over money.


So as you go to vote this week, think about how you vote, and why you choose a particular candidate, make informed decisions, it does matter, every vote counts!

How true those words are!

Problem is - - how do you see through all the hoopla to see what is smoke and mirrors and what is real?

Like the Wizard of Oz - "Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain!"

One way to get to the truth is to avoid main stream media at all cost, except Fox news maybe!
