Celebrating Democracy

During the election season candidates put up signs on public right of ways to get your attention. Most people hate these signs. I have learned a way to like them and so can you. Just start seeing them in the same way that you see Christmas lights. They are a celebration of the Christmas season, Think of election signs as a celebration of the First Amendment and the election season.

That these signs can exist at all is a testament to our democracy and the freedom to choose that we have. Thinking of them as the outward signs of the annual celebration of democracy has worked for me. To me the electioneering signs are no longer eyesores, Now to me they are as beautiful as Christmas decorations. That they will exist is not controllable by you, but your attitude to them is.
