why i'm liberal. (political)

lib·er·al
lɪbərəl, ˈlɪbrəl/ lib-er-uhl, lib-ruhl]favorable to progress or reform, as in political or religious affairs.

during this past year, i have strangely found a new stance on how i see the world.
liberalism.
being in a small, and (mostly) conservative school,
my liberal approach on the political spectrum was (and still is) a strange one.
i do believe that a political opinion is an ever-changing part of life,
and there are definitely no guarantees that i will always stay the same.

being liberal is usually defined by following the democratic party.
and the democratic party is a taboo amongst some conservatives,
for supporting the gay rights and abortion.
and those issues, are unacceptable.
being a liberal means, you have to ignore the long accepted traditions for reforms.
face the criticisms of those who follow those traditions.

so why?
why am i a liberal?

living amongst a blend of korean, indonesian, and american cultures,
i have realized that change is never bad.
and is something you will have to live with.
all ideas of change
must be examined by somebody
in order for change to happen.

and unfortunate to say,
changes, not traditions, create the future.

it is the liberals' job to support those changes,
and lead the pathways for the future.

i do not want to see a future, that is not without change.
if what the future holds, has not changed from what the past holds,
it isn't the future.

i am a liberal.
for i am anxiously excited for the ideas that one day will create the future.
