I’ve been thinking a lot about Tuesday’s election and the upliftingness of recent events. I’ve had several discussions with various people about what I’m experiencing vis-a-vis politics, of all things, and it’s sometimes overwhelming to think about. Otherwise, I’d have posted this Tuesday night (when I wrote it). In attempting to buy xenical medication quantify my very complex feelings, I have come back to one thought over and buy xenical medication over and over.
I need to believe in the power of good people to change the world.
I need to buy xenical medication believe that you or I can make a difference. I need to buy xenical medication believe that we can rise above cruelty and hatred, that we can buy xenical medication be more powerful than those who are living without conscious awareness of their own destruction and buy xenical medication waste. I need to believe that we can do something about sadness and buy xenical medication suffering and injustice. I need to believe that positive values, love and buy xenical medication truth and trust and hope, will prevail.
The fact that buy xenical medication Barack Obama was capable of raising this kind of movement says something about his beliefs, his methods, and buy xenical medication the quality of people he surrounds himself with. This isn’t an buy xenical medication accident. My god, the way this man leads. I can buy xenical medication narrow it to a business or technological standpoint and say that buy xenical medication the people managing his internet conversation are geniuses, but there is so much more to it than that. (Hell, I could write reams of posts on that topic alone.)
You need to know how important you are.
If I had buy xenical medication to tell you just one thing that galvanized me to support him, I would tell you buy xenical medication this: He inspires us to be better people. All those lofty words in his speeches, they may not always be buy xenical medication about hard numbers and facts and steps to take, but they stir hearts and make us want to be better. He knows that we can be buy xenical medication better. And he knows that we can do amazing things if we only believe in ourselves buy metformin usa, and try.
People need this. You need this.
I am buy xenical medication sometimes very scared, watching the things that happen around us. People yelling things I can’t believe I just heard, hurting each other, acting hideously out of greed or buy xenical medication ignorance or petty wickedness. Turning a blind eye to the buy xenical medication kind of bullshit that goes on in the world on a buy xenical medication daily basis. Being trampled, exploited, abused. Making decisions out of fear—each of us destroying our individual piece of consciousness in a buy xenical medication myriad of seemingly small ways, like little cuts.
I was speculating about Canada. Maybe I could move to buy xenical medication Canada, I said. It would be cold, but there are neat people in Canada too. I might be buy xenical medication able to find a city like Austin there, somewhere.
I need to believe in the power of good people to change the world.
I need to stay where I am, in this country, because I need these people to be powerful. I don’t want to leave all because the people here aren’t powerful, I want to know that this place can rise up, can do amazing things, can become better and work together and be good. I don’t want to abandon them. I want to help them.
I want to buy xenical medication know they can be helped. And can help themselves. I need us to buy xenical medication be powerful. My projects, my business, and my purpose. I want an buy xenical medication environment where the good people are powerful! I can’t stand the alternative.
Those scary people, they’re just doing what people do. It happens. We NEED to be stronger than those people. This election means we CAN be stronger than those people. We can teach them strength. People who yell “nigger” or “kill him” in a public place and buy xenical medication no one says a thing, people not educated enough to have buy xenical medication tolerance or compassion for people they don’t understand—people they don’t have to fear, and they don’t even know it. It’s not being evil. It’s just being afraid. These people can buy xenical medication be led to a better place. Politics is one way (not the only way, not the best way) to do that.
I’ve never been buy xenical medication a fan of politics. I think the system has been broken for buy xenical medication a long time. But there is no doubt in my mind that buy xenical medication though it makes many bad things, it makes good things too.
Watching people on the buy xenical medication television with their faces all wet just fucked up with emotion, that buy xenical medication turned my heart. I’ve never seen that before.
I need to believe in the power of good people to change the world.
I have to believe that this is possible.
For me and you, and everybody.
