I Voted

So were you at the polls? 
Did you dance around the living room or stew unhappily after hearing the results of the election? 
Are you celebrating the next four years or dreading them? 
I don't know what's going to happen over the course of this Presidential term, but I know that it's supposed to be a very important time in history––not only for our country, but for much of the world.
And with the global economy and international relations being what they are, with such a big world now having become so small through the mind-bogglingly unifying abilities of technology, it's no wonder these next years will so greatly shape things.
It's little scary. It's a little exciting. And it's a lot out of our control.
As much as I, Control Freak Extraordinaire, hate to admit it, it's very, very much out of our control.
But maybe that's a good thing. 
We're so flawed, and sometimes it seems we become increasingly flawed. Which means that, if any one of us were in control, we'd screw things up even more.
So remember that you don't control things and try to learn to trust.
There's someone much more important than any president watching over things, and He knows what decisions need to be made. He knows when to make them, and how to make them.
Trust and listen.
Maybe then you'll truly feel like dancing.
