I am blessed to be part of two wonderful families. The family of my birth and the family of my marriage are both exceptional gifts but they differ in many ways. The family of my birth is the more traditional and conservative. They have iron clad wondrous ethical and moral standards and have made the world a better place. My other family, equally rock solid in their ethics and morals, differs in that they are more liberal and have diverse political and religious views. Like the family of my birth they have made the world a better place. The point woth noting for me is that despite thes differences they love and respect each other, and never sever that reality because of diverse paths.That commitment is one as a citizen I hope that I will alays honor and chersih.Democracy is not based on one size fits all but rather a system where all are heard and respected.
