John F. Kennedy Provides the Perfect Quote for Perspective on Election Day
Election day is bittersweet for many people. Some people’s candidate will win, and others will lose. Either way, everyone will be happy when the political ads end! Furthermore, tomorrow the sun will rise just like any other day.
Unquestionably, however, as we all have come to experience over the last 4 years, elections do have consequences. While nothing will change tomorrow other than the end to those political ads, change will eventually come as a result of what happens today. The one thing about life that will always stay the same is change. No need to get angry about what happens, and no need to agonize over it either. It just is what it is, and all that matters is what you do next.
In light of this, I believe John F. Kennedy has the perfect quote to bring perspective to this fact.
Change is the law of life. And those who look only to the past or present are certain to miss the future. – John F. Kennedy
As Kennedy reminds us, don’t waste time tomorrow and the days following ruminating on the past or present. The world will continue to change, and the future will work out best for those who adapt to it, shape it, and lead it.
