Voting Day! Today is the Day! To be quite honest I was not going to vote… I was convinced that it did not really matter… However, after being threatened by my parents that I must - that many before me (women, especially) fought and even died to make this happen – I realized the importance and gave in. I guess I did not want to vote, because quite frankly I do not see much change when we do. All we see beforehand are the candidates tearing each other up. Every time I see one of those ads, it just pushes me further and further away from wanting do to so… However, I have realized that those ‘people – government’ really do not want us to vote. It somehow works out better for them if we do not… and that, I could not deal with… so, I am off to Vote and do my civic duty! In quoting, Seth Godin “Voting is free. It's fairly fast. It doesn't make you responsible for the outcome, but it sure has an impact on what we have to live with going forward… Even if you're disgusted, vote. Vote for your least unfavorite choice. But go vote.” Pray for our Nation… we are deep in it… yours, ~deirdra
