Today, I made a Difference!!

Being someone that will make a difference has always been the way that i want to live & try to live each day of my life. However, I can't tell you how many times that i have struggled with the fact that this world is SUch a BIG place & I am just one teeny tiny little part of the Great BIG World that we live in. How on EARTH can just little ol me make a difference? I ask myself that every single day. There have been times that i have felt so small. Wanting to do so much, yet feeling helpless. I still struggle with this. What can I possible do to make a difference?
Well, today, for the first time that i can recall - finally, for some reason-I really felt like I made a difference.

I exercised my right as a citizen of the United States of America, as an AMERICAN, to VOTE! In an election, that will possibly make history.

I am very aware that even what i was involved in today, I am still just one small vote in the BIG picture. I don't know what the outcome will be yet. I don't know that my one little vote will turn the tides in the direction that i would like them too... but I VOTED!

I feel proud.
it helped me to feel hopeful

I feel this is important

I feel like this is my Civic Duty

and no matter what the outcome, I am so very thankful that i live in the country that i do.
I am thankful for my freedoms.
I am thankful, that as a single mother-i am able to provide for my children in a country that will allow me to do so.

I did my part!

fulfilled MY responsibility-my civic duty

I made MY voice heard!

I Voted! and it felt GOOD!
