The First Vote

I voted for the first time today in about seven years of eligibility. And I can't really explain the ecstasy I felt. And the relief. The relief of starting to take politics seriously. Thanks to all the numerous awareness campaigns in various media and in my locality, I decided enough is enough. This year, I actively compared between various options available (but ignoring the farce you see on television in the name of channel surveys) on my own and cast my vote. I can now go back to office and work peacefully for the next five years. Probably. :-)

Hey Jes, thanks for the comment. :) I know a few guys who go great lengths in explaining on their weblogs why they don't want to vote ! Some of these guys are plain idiotes!
Bravo!! We stand alike on thiss issue, i voted for the first time myself. Ofcourse it does help that Tarun Utkarsh is just about a stone's throw away!! :)
Kudos to you, coz you voted out of conviction. If only more of us did that, our 5-year relaxation period would be ensured :-)
It does! but it wouldn't have, for me. :-)
