Politics as usual

Tomorrow is November 4.

I know you're sarcastically thinking, "Yes, Christy, I know how to read a calendar!"

Still, it will not be a normal day.
Unless you have been living under a rock, you know that tomorrow will be the day that the United States of America votes for its next president.

This election is going to be a historic one.

There are so many reasons why this is the case.
Even a quick look at the presidential candidates that have been campaigning throughout the election process should tell you this.

This is also a critical point in history.
We are at war.
The economy is not exactly what it should be.
My personal beliefs are even being compromised with the addition of new laws in certain states.
It goes on.

I encourage you to vote.
More than that, I encourage you to know what you're voting for.
Don't pick a candidate based on which person you like best.
Base your vote on the issues a candidate stands for.
If those issues are your beliefs, vote for them.

I could tell you who to vote for, but I will refrain from doing so.

I'm praying for this election.
I pray that God's will be done with it--even if we don't have the same candidate in mind.
God has a plan for whatever happens.

"America, America, God shed His grace on thee..."

God, shed your grace on us.

Here we are.

People are always trying to get me to start a blog.

I say I like to write, and I often get asked if I have one.

When I say no, they ask me why not.

"Procrastination," I say.
"It's my weakness."

I suppose this post will be my starting point.

More writing! Less procrastinating!

Maybe.

Is there a 12-step program to keep writers with "creative" time management skills like mine writing?

Oh, only time will tell.

What joy should be filling your heart right now! You've just read my first blog. :)
