Hey John. Will you be my Valentine?


Today is Valentine's Day, a day set aside to reflect on and appreciate those things that we hold dear to our hearts; the people, places, and memories that we love. I hope that you are able to spend today with people you cherish.
 
Remember, the best way to say I love you is to make a donation to your favorite candidate.

Joking aside, today also marks the beginning of Lent, a 40 day season dedicated to self-reflection and improvement that is usually celebrated by giving up something, whether hobby or habit, that you love for those 40 days. 

It is an interesting combination, and it has given me pause as I think about the things I love and what among those things I would be willing to let go. At the end of the day, I think my answers are the same as yours. At least, I hope so.

I love my wife. Without her there would be no me.
 
I love my daughters. Without them I would not worry about our future.

I love my country. Without it I would not have the opportunity to reach my full potential or the chance to help others reach theirs.

Obviously, there are so many more things on the list: puppies, kittens, flowers, birds, the color of the sky after it rains, or the sight of the sun dipping into the ocean. Love is easy.

The hard part is giving something up. What on that list can I do away with for a meager 40 days, much less a lifetime?

Oddly enough, I am giving up something that is not on the list of love, but is still a part of me -- I am giving up on hatred. 

I hate the fact that I consider my neighbors and friends enemies because they disagree with me. I hate the fact that our country has become so hyper-partisan that a football game becomes a political statement. The list of things I hate goes on for at least as long as the things I love, but it starts with I hate the idea that we, as Americans, can't talk to each other.

So, I'm not going to believe it anymore, and I challenge you to do the same. At least for the next 40 days.

Help me represent you best

In my meetings with people across the will-be 7th Congressional District, I have heard concerns that have given me serious pause. I value these people and their thoughts. I am running to be a Representative of the 7th District and I want to be certain I include as many perspectives as possible.
For that reason, I am taking a pause from my own messaging. You will soon find my website a simple reference page. My appearances in the last weeks of February are limited in order to give me time to listen more than talk.

To this end, I invite you to what is a very important event for me and my campaign. A live Town Hall on Facebook, Sunday, February 25 at 7 pm. I strongly encourage you to join me and ask that you invite someone, especially if they do not see things the way you do. I will take pre-submitted questions first. Please submit your questions, concerns, and any other info you'd like someone running to be your representative to know. These comments can be sent to [email protected].
As always, it is an honor to represent you. I am excited to hear from you.
