Vote

Long line of people waiting to vote in South Africa's first free election in 1994

A reporter asked an old man waiting in line how he felt about standing for hours in the hot sun to vote.  The old man replied that the hours didn't matter since he had waited a lifetime for this moment.


Tomorrow we will vote our fears and resentments as much as our hopes and dreams.
