Holding my breath

Before polls start closing and numbers start coming in, I just want to capture this feeling of nervousness and anticipation. You can just feel how big and important it all is. We're voting not just for president, but we're standing up in California for gay rights, for animal rights, for an amazing new high speed rail, for the environment, for the future of our courts, for reproductive rights.

Whatever happens, I think what I know today is that I need to get out and make a difference. I need to step up from this desk and put my energies where my heart is.

Life is too short to sit by and watch.
