  The Politicization of Common Sense and Morality; of course I’m voting for Trump!             Many years ago I started writing a blog before the Presidential election to give a thought provoking and detailed reasoning as to who I was voting for and why.   When I looked at writing it this year, deep down I wanted to say, “Duh.” If any of you have been reading anything that I write for any length of time, you’ll know where I stand on this election.               While it’s always my desire to come across genuinely loving and to see both sides of the situation here, this time I know I will probably offend some.   While that isn’t my goal, the nation we live in is getting more and more divisive and the ‘middle ground’ has quickly disappeared.   I will state my opinion, and I realize not everyone will agree with it.   While I love people, I cannot c...

Hello :-) So its a really long story how this happened, but my 16 year old wrote this article. . .this article is being picked up by a lot of news sites already and is going viral.  Here is one of it's locations.  So proud of her! https://barbwire.com/2017/12/14/the-voice-of-my-generation-you-for-man-or-god/ I thought you might want to take a look :-) Remember God has awesome plans for your life.  Get excited!

              I think I probably tell this story once every few years but given all the drama in the election there were some things that were brought up, and again I found myself needing to share our story again.             I grew up in a small Ohio town in what is considered the heart of Ohio.   I don’t remember ever thinking about Canada much as a kid, nor realizing that the Southern border was 3 hours north of my childhood home.   I do remember my father going up there once on business and bring back money that looked fake and thinking how cool it was.             Many of you have heard the funny story of how I met my amazing super awesome husband.   It’s really a long story but to make it short: I was dating a different man in college at OSU, he decided to move to Pittsburgh t...

              I want to share something that’s been on my heart lately and perhaps on the eve of America’s most historical election it seems like an odd time to share it, but I feel like I need to. Ronald Reagan once said, “ Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same.”             Twenty years ago, give or take a few, when I was in high school/college.   It was a different world.   Sure the older folks complained about us whipper snappers, but innocence didn’t seem lost.   I remember when Ellen came out of the closet she was shunned and put off the air.   I remember I saw a drug deal once in high school.   In college (Ohio State University) I took a Human Sexuality class because it fulfilled ...

Hello :-) Today for Real Solutions I reaired the election episode with Pastor JC Church.  If you haven't seen it then please check it out here.  https://youtu.be/XsHoB-nEQy4 Yesterday our Pastors shared this message from Mike Pence in our church  https://youtu.be/oUkdvxqCKtg  I think many needed to hear this. For the many who have said to me they just aren't sure they can vote for Trump but know they can't vote for Hillary. . .I wanted to share that video.  I don't believe either canidate is perfect, but I do believe Trump is surrounding himself with people I can get behind.  Pence is a precious man of God who has stood up for righteousness within our government at many times.   If you are an American please make sure if you haven't early voted that you vote tomorrow.  If you are not an American then please pray for our country.  America is standing at a crossroads. Remember God has awesome plans for your life.  So yo...

    ***This blog is political in nature.   If you don’t agree with me, then that’s fine.   I’m a big girl, but please don’t start a social media battle with me.   I just don’t have time for those shenanigans.   Here is my email address, feel free to use it anna@annamaquino.com****             This will be a blog that I’m debating on if I will ever release it , and even if I do I’ll admit to writing it, obsessing over it and rewriting it on several occasions which isn’t something I normally do.   Yes, I am writing on the elections and where my vote is going.   <<< Que Background Music Now>>> Seriously and sadly my background music of choice might be a funeral march instead of the National Anthem. (I’M JOKING!)   As I write this, I am not looking for an open discussion on my choice for America’s next president.   The choice I’ve come to has...
