The Day after Tomorrow is the name of a movie about a catastrophic event that threatens to destroy our civilization.
The day after tomorrow is also the day (Wednesday) we will hopefully know who wins the Presidential election. Regardless of who wins there will be some who see the election as a catastrophic event.
But I want you to know that no matter who wins, it's not the end of civilization as we know it.
Even if your candidate loses, you shouldn't lose hope.
While you may feel powerless you have more power than you think.
Individually, you can't control who wins the election but you can control what you do the day after tomorrow.
You can be happy.
You can work hard.
You can love others.
You can make a difference.
You can pray for the President to lead well and make great decisions.
You can invent something that changes the world.
You can start and build a successful business.
You can inspire your students and believe in them.
You can help heal someone.
You can feed the poor and help the needy.
You can raise your children with great values and principles.
You can love, serve and care.
The President will be in control of running the country but you and only you are in control of running your life.
Leadership is important. But one person doesn't make America. We make America.
