So the election is over.

Honestly, I almost didn't vote because I was unsure & hesitant about it.
There are things I disagree with on both sides,
but I won't even go into that.

I do believe that Obama is capable of bringing this "change" that the majority desires
& I do believe that he won for a reason.
(That doesn't mean I voted for him though.)
& right now, I really could care less about who won. It's done & over with.
We are now to give him respect as our president.

What is sad is how people allow to stir up commotion
& build hate & animosity between each other due to opposing views.
It started a while back & yet continues on even when it's over.
That is not what this election was for. We are to unite as one country.
Yes, everyone is entitled to their own opinion
& believe it or not, everyone's going to be biased & close-minded.
So do people think attacking someone for their views is going to get them anywhere?
This is why I chose not to speak of what I believe in.
(& come on guys, this is just MySpace.)
I just hope people knew exactly what they were voting for & educated themselves first
& just didn't... follow the crowd.

But then, this is my blog & I can't write what it want in it.
& I will disclose one thing.

All I want to divulge is what I feel about the one thing that saddens me most. Abortion.

I hope people aren't reasoning for cheaper gas & tax prices over the cost of life.
Never is it equitable to take away the life of a helpless baby as if it's nothing.
It's just not right (unless if raped by an old, crusty man).
Whether you regard it as a human being or not, it is still life.
It's what could have been. & I have told this before.
I once was pro-choice until I really thought it out & realized I was selfish & naive.
If one feels that they are ready, responsible, & mature enough
to take on the pleasures & excitement of consensual sex,
then they should be ready & mature enough
to handle the responsibilities & consequences it may bring.
Or maybe one should just keep their legs closed until they are.
Sooner or later, if not already,
people are going to use abortions as just another form of birth control.
If people don't want to get pregnant, they should be doing something before the pants drop
& do something about the cause of the problem rather than the after effect.
That baby could be the greatest gift, one that helps them mature,
or it could ruin ones life. Either way, someone's life gets ruined.

I was unplanned & a mistake. My mom even admitted it.
They didn't love each other. (& I'm sure it's the same for many others.)
But I sure as heck am grateful that she decided to keep me alive & raise me the way she did.

That is all.
Happy election night.
( I really didn't think I'd write this much. I always do that. D; )
