A Battle For Right Is Won!!!

Never have I worked so hard, or felt more passionate about a cause in my life. I feel so blessed to have been able to be an active part in the work to help Pass Propostion 8. I was so overwhelmed with emotion as we heard the news that Prop 8 had passed & we are VICTORIOUS!!! Last night as I was driving home from dropping off the lists I had been calling for those last minute voters... feeling the hungar pains of a day long fast which was added upon with a day full of running to houses with door hangers doing the good work, fighting the good fight. My emotions couldn't hold it in anymore. I recieved the news that my candidate for President had not been victorious, that my choice for our debilitating school board had been defeated, & my eyes filled with tears & my heart sobbed. It was a release of a long month of pushing forward for what I believe to be right. For taking some abuse along the way, for being called a hater & a bigot. For others trying so hard to make me feel wrong for standing up for what I believe to be right. It was a good cry & although my candidate for President didn't win & I am really not feeling great about who did, the most important battle was won. I know without a shadow of a doubt that our prayers were answered & our desire for righteousness has prevailed. This time in my life, this election will always stand out as the most important. For me feeling like I made a difference not only with my vote but with my time putting in the work will forever be something I hold dear. I appreciate & thank all those who gave of their time & efforts to help with this most important cause. I have never had more fun standing up for what I believe in with good people that feel the same. Our future & our childrens future were at stake & things are still going to be rocky, but knowing that there is power in numbers & seeing what can be done when we stand for what is right is a testament to me personally.
