Exercise of Another Sort
I got up at 4:00 this morning so I could be at the polls when they opened at 6:00. There is something about being there when they say, "Hear ye! Hear ye! Hear ye! The polls are now open!" that is really stirring and kind of chokes me up. All this patriotic stuff just gets to me sometimes! Less than 100 years ago I would have only been able to make my husband a hearty breakfast and send him off to the polls to vote however he saw fit, because I would not have had the right to go myself. And still today in so many places around the world people don't get to choose their leaders. So don't take it for granted. Even if you don't do any other exercise today, exercise your right to vote!
