Most of us grow up with a desire to nurture and protect what is close to us.
It may be family, it may be Nature, it may be a cause that we are involved in.
We must make sure our voices are heard in cases where there are infringements.
No where is this more evident than in today’s politics, so more and more of us are speaking up to protect, defend, and expand the practice of democracy.
The feeling of crisis as we see commercial and corporate interests taking away physical safety, as well as food, water and ecological safety is extreme.
So, many groups and individuals have become involved as we take part in correcting egregious practices.
We are all valuable and precious in our appreciation of our freedoms.
We are all valuable and precious in what we have to contribute to civilization and society.
In order to make those contributions, we must be free to live and to vote.
Our decision-making ability is most harmonious through unrestricted voting for all members of our communities.
Without a peaceful method of making our voices heard, more stringent methods become inevitable.
By releasing all to vote and respecting and valuing their right to do so, we create a society which is fair and balanced.
Such a society can progress within and without.
Such a society can address problems with solutions to benefit all of us.
The narrow-minded thinking of greed is trying to erode the benefits of a representative government for such a pitiable reason, personal control of resources.
Such selfish motives have no place in a democracy which exists to benefit all her people.
I am grateful to hear so many voices speaking up to protect and defend all of us.
