Dear Journal...

Dear Journal,
           
            Even though this is a very stressful subject and is very difficult trying to persuade everyone that women should have the right to vote; I have had a wonderful time meeting all these courageous and brave people. They inspire me so much and have had a huge impact on my life.
            This is a huge change in my life because I have never worked to get something so hard. It has taught me life lessons that I would have never learned if I would not have joined the campaign for women’s suffrage. I have learned that you do not get everything the first time you try. You have to keep working and working and trying different ways to do things that did not work the first time. You have to be very creative.
            In the end, we eventually won the fight. It took many, many years but it was worth it. Even though it got pretty stressful sometimes you just learn to bear through it and hope for the best. I just want to thank everyone who supported women’s suffrage through it all because without you we wouldn’t be where we are today.
