Today Will Make History: Take a Moment to Give Thanks.

Today History will be Made in the United States of America irregardless of the candidate you or I personally cast our respective ballot for. At the end of this day Our country will either have the first black President or the first female Vice President in the history of this Great Land and the world is watching. The beauty of it is we are witnessing history in the making.

Much has been written about this Election and Tempers have Flared, even on ActiveRain, but we as Americans are a Blessed People and may we not hold opposing views against one another by burning the bridges of friendship. We The People have always been the backbone of this land and even though we may losing our voice to Professional Politicians we still have the right to vote that many in the world are denied.

We all still have the freedom our forefathers fought and died for and one of them is the right to agree or disagree. This is still the land of opportunity to pursue our dreams and if we are willing to work for them they may become a reality. We can have as many children as we wish and when we walk into a grocery store it is stocked full of the foods we love. Much to be thankful for and at times we take it for granted.

Please Take a Moment to Reflect upon the Blessings of Our Land and if you believe in God tell Him thanks. If you don't believe that is your right as an American but please count your blessings and be thankful we all live in the United States of America and today we voted for the President of our choice.

As for Me I Have much to Thankful For and One of Them is my Therapist whose picture graces this post as she reminds me every time we get together I have freedom. I can ride for a day or go across the Country without being stopped at a checkpoint to produce documents proving I have the right to be there.The exception is the occasional stop by a Sate Trooper who for some reason thinks I may be Speeding.

Take a Moment and Count Your Blessings.
