If you say you don't vote, people might accuse you of being apathetic, assuming that you've given up all hope of making a significant difference. However, many people who chose not to vote have done so - not because they feel apathetic - but because throwing away a piece of paper every four years seems futile, when you're working every day to make a difference.

You can change the world in subtle, small ways - even starting with smiling asking your neighbour how he's doing. You can meditate, donate to charity or do charity work, or use cryptocurrency in an attempt to mitigate the power of big government. The ways you can find to make things better are literally endless.

You do make a difference every day, with your eating habits, your conversations, and choosing how you spend your money. It's a difficult question, but as conscious beings we strive to ask it frequently: Are your habits aligned with the change that you want to see in the world?
