Some people don't understand on here

I actually love Barack Obama. I gave 10 months of my life for this guy. When he said hold me accountable. I took him at his word. I was in a very bad place in my life when this campaign started and at the end of it I was in a very good place.

When I say a good place, not in material things, or career wise, or other things. In the only thing that matters. I had sacrificed 10 months for a cause that was bigger than myself and I hadn't done it for any other reason than to hopefully further this country.

I told someone, I need to take a break. After the war some of the troops need to rest up or go back to training. There is still a war going on though and I feel guilty about taking a break to get more tools and to clear my mind.

I would have gotten a break but a friend ran for office and I gave her about 50% of what I gave the President. I also gave another 10% to other things political.

I was in a good place because he helped me to believe that I matter and that I could do good things.

I need to take a break. At the end of the campaign. The DFOs (Deputy Field Organizers) and I looked at each other and said how do we go back to what we were doing before after we just elected him. Honestly, how do you go back to what you were doing before.

I sacrificed for a cause bigger than myself, and I think I've earned a break for a while. Doesn't mean I won't be sacrificing but I need to focus on preparing myself so I can be more effective.

I saw a warning sign of what will happen to me if I don't take a break the other day.
