Still Being Hopeful


As election day draws nearer and nearer I find myself logging some long hours talking politics with people I never expected to talk politics with (the girl at the grocery, that Middle-East guy at the 7-11 and friends I have known for years who never gave any indication that they even cared.)
I could be an alarmist and launch an all-out attack on the misinformation that we are presented with but I have chosen to adopt a more personal approach and just try to persuade anybody I can that now is (seriously) the time for change.
We have to vote.
We cannot afford another moment of the same choices that we've seen for the last 8 years.
To ability to vote is one of the only super-human powers that we have left.
And, as always, it falls to us to use our powers for good - not evil.
Think about it.

Hey now... Not too sure about that banner there!

I love that you're talking to people. I need to do more of that. I seem to only be talking to those who agree with me.

Love you.

I've had some major disagreements. And, its frustrating that I just can't win every argument. But, I know I'm doing what I should : )
