Election 2012

I know that a lot of people are upset by what happened tonight, I kind of am too.  I voted for Romney.  But try and think this way.

While Obama might not been my choice, and I feel that the country would be better off with Romney at the wheel, I highly doubt he would do anything that would stop me from living my standards.  The United States is a country of the people.  Our leaders will not do things to truly 'screw us over.'  Honestly, I feel like most of them that I don't agree with just enable people to do things I don't agree with or make it harder for me to do the things I want.

As a Mormon, I am not discouraged by the bad things in the world, I let them fall behind me, and I am not saddened by having to work harder to live my testimony.  I relish it.  I get to prove beyond any doubt how devoted I am to doing what's right.  

The true problem in America is not who is in charge, it's what the people want.  Their moral compasses do not point North.  The president can't change this, it isn't his job.  He does not have responsibility for the nation's morals.  I feel that with Romney as president we would eventually still fall into a moral quagmire.  My personal standards have been deviating from the world's for years, and whoever is living in the White House won't change that.  The only thing that can is the Word of the One True God.

I guess what I'm saying is as long as I can live my life the way the Lord wants me to, I will rejoice.  Lift up your heads and rejoice, for now is the time we will stand out beyond any other.  The world is darkening, let's shine brighter in comparison.
