Yet in truth, I have never been that much involved, or for that matter interested, in any form of politics. I have been on this planet for some sixtyfive years now, and can honestly say, from my stand point, nothing ever really changed, no matter who was elected. I traveled a lot, I never went hungry, I always owned my own house, I had the most wonderful and supportive friends. I was not born with money, in fact we were a relatively poor family, yet even today as a so called pensioner, I have all that I need. I don't believe, its who you vote for, that makes your life better, your life is up to you and you alone. Osho once said, "politicians cannot love, their agenda is power " When I was a younger man, I would vote in the general elections.
