We Can Have An Impact




As you know I write a lot about purpose and destiny.  The Presidential Election on Tuesday November 8 showed how much the people want change in the leadership of the nation. They are looking for people of hope. This is where we can come in and be people of impact.

The most important thing is to have answers that people can put themselves behind along with hope. The last few years there have been tragedies with shootings whether by policemen who are supposed to be those we are to trust and to protect or young people along with teachers at schools.

Another thing people have to see is that change will occur along with those who want to make an impact do it with passion. Other words no one wants the same old thing.

 The sad part I found though when it comes to government on the local side voters keep bringing back those who have been in power and not new blood. They see names that are familiar and don’t want change locally compared to nationally. A lot of that has to do with party lines. For example in Washington State where I live the majority of voters are democrats. They continue voting in the same people until someone retires or doesn’t run anymore. Although they may want change they vote the party line. It goes with names that are familiar to them as well. I am not a democrat so in most cases I don’t vote that way though I have voted for democrats in a couple positions. If people want change locally they need to bring new people to run in their party or vote for the other party.  True change and impact will happen more on the local level than the national or at least that is where it should start anyway.

So if you are someone that doesn’t like what is happening it is important for you to get out and make an impact. In another term someone who is a trail blazer that others can follow. Let it begin with us today.
