Voting For Life

I know I’m belaboring the issue, but I just need to share with you how moved I was by voting yesterday morning! This was the first presidential election that I’ve been able to vote in and I have to say that the experience inspired me to such a degree that I’m positive I will not miss a single election for the rest of my life (assuming that I’m still an American citizen down the road…). I came out of the booth feeling so alive! I felt awake! Making decisions, using my mind, having an opinion, saying something! I’m pretty sure that was the most meaningful thing I’ve done in a long time. Standing in line with my fellow Nevadans I started to cry thinking about what we were all doing there! (Okay, so perhaps I was a little overtired…) But the reality that Everyone in America comes together because they believe in freedom — within a thirteen hour time span– is truly a phenomenon! Don’t you think? Did anyone else out there get a Voter’s high?
