A couple weeks ago, I put my ballot in a dropbox. A few days later, I got the (expected) text that my ballot was received and accepted.
I wasn't prepared for my reaction. I've voted in presidential elections a dozen times; it always felt mildly gratifying, the way checking off something on a to-do list can be.
But this time felt different. I felt positively *uplifted* reading that text. I couldn't help but smile. Doing my tiny part this time felt like an especially big deal.
