Day 6 of Thankfulness

Since today is voting day, I thought it would be appropriate to write about what a blessing it is to live in a democratic country with a freedom to vote! I get to go to the voting polls today and cast my vote for several elected officials. I don't have to be in fear, disguise my face or worry about my safety like majority of the world (those that have elections that is). I think it is a privilege to be able to vote, especially being a woman! Most people forget we (women) were the last to be allowed to vote. I don't want to get on my soap box so I will just say this, no matter your voter affiliations, please get out and vote! This is what our forefathers fought so hard for us to be allowed to do! So today I am very thankful to live in a country where my voice matters!
