Liberation
It was my dad who gave me the idea to stop giving a damn about who
sits where and who should be ousted and why we can never get enough
of Iraq. I remember asking him when I was twelve why he isn't
voting like mother or everyone else and he told me, "because I
don't want to be fooled any longer." I wasn't sure what it meant at
the time, but when I turned into the age where I get to vote, I
remembered the conversation.
I voted three times since my first and later got involved in a student organization of "freethinkers," which led me to doubt everything in the world, that there's no absolute truth, etcetera. And being a Sociology student in college, I often wrote political essays and engaged in debates in school, which further developed my cynical disposition on many many things. I thought of myself as liberated, but even that, I doubted because despite the way I think and act, I can never free myself from my other responsibilities. I'm talking about doing my part as a citizen despite the absence of a political stand.
