Who to vote for

Vote for your neighbors.

You may not like any candidate for office or the party behind them, but vote for your neighbors.

Choose to believe in your neighbors.

Choose to be interested in them.

Choose to respect them.

Choose to trust them.

Choose to want the best for them.

Do you believe you can do that?

Even if your neighbor has the “wrong” candidate’s sign in the front yard?

Even if your neighbor’s skin is a different color than yours?

Even if your neighbor goes to a different house of worship (or no house of worship)?

Even if your neighbor was born in another country and chose to come here?

Vote for your neighbors.

Electing the right leaders is of great importance in a democratic republic.

But the most important thing? Electing each other into a shared citizenship in which we practice mutual honor, respect, and trust.

Neighbor-hood is the essence of democracy.

P.S. You may wonder: “Who is my neighbor?”

You’ll find the answer here: Gospel of Luke 10:25 - 37
