This post's title is inspired by a tweet I saw in the
thick of December by probably one of the coolest peeps I’ve come across on the

radar at the moment is this year’s elections.

state of affairs. Anyway, during this time we were also very inspired by the
words of normal South Africans and some very influential people around the
world. So to this being the year of action and initiating positive change in all aspects of our lives. I’d like to remind you of these words, what I like to call vote-spiration:
