Wednesday

so today my computer went back to the shop. it is having issues AGAIN UGHHHHHH but obviously there are bigger things going on in our country than my stinking computer. here are my thoughts on the election~~~

I am thankful that i serve a king who knows everything that is going to happen before it does, thankful that even when things don't go my way he has my best interest at heart. thankful that he loves us so much he sent his son to die for us. and that is all that matters

and he still reigns forevermore

I thought the speeches were AWESOME! i think that Obama's speech was beautiful and i think his family is gorgeous! i don't agree with his politics but i think it is awesome that as a man who was born in this country into a "poor" family and worked his way up through all adversity to the president of the US is awesome! that is what American is about right? it is evident everyone wants changes from the crappy last 2+ years and boy they got it now. i think it is scary for one party to run the house, senate and the white house but the people have over whelming spoke and that is why we are the US.

and he still reigns forevermore

it is amazing how many people voted something like 80% of voters in my county voted that is huge!!!

and he still reigns forevermore

on the topic of race i think it is awesome a black man was elected president! what a proud moment for so many African Americans in our country to have someone someone who they can see themselves in become president. to be able to say to to there children "See you CAN be president" most black people who i saw interviewed said they would have thought this day would have never happened, this shows us all anyone can be president. including a woman!

and he still reigns forevermore

i am rejoicing today that we live in America and we have the freedom to vote for whoever we want. and obviously he ran a much better campaign. once again i am not promoting his politics i don't agree with 90% of what he says, but what he has accomplished is more than amazing and i will respect that for today at least/

and he still reigns forevermore

and wow what a hero John McCain truly is, his speech was beautiful. he spoke to America with such a love for his country you could feel it

and he still reigns forevermore!
