Perceptions
It’s sometimes hard for me to understand that I can see something so clearly from my perspective and the person I am talking to sees a completely different picture. I don’t mean a slight difference, but polar opposites. I know it’s important for us to allow for other opinions and perceptions, but it’s curious at times. I guess that appears more obvious every 4 years around this time when the Presidential election nears. I respect people’s right to their opinion and choices, and they should respect mine.

One of the advantages of living in the United States is that we are encouraged to have passionate feelings and the ability to express those feelings through our voting privilege. I encourage everyone to educate themselves about the issues, ask questions to clarify your thoughts, and vote for the person who best suits your needs and the needs of your family (or stepfamily). I guess this advice holds true not only for electing public officials, but for enhancing your life in general. Our opinions and feelings really do matter.
