Brian and I stayed up well past midnight to listen to his acceptance speech. Watching the crowd in Chicago's Grant Park made me wish I was there. My friend, Heather L., and I made several calls back and forth to each other through out the night. Excitement was seriously flowing through our veins. We spoke of how honored we felt to be able to be part of this special history in our country. Of course this won't change overnight.... he is inheriting the problems of some of the worst 8 years in our nation's history. But I felt motivated and inspired listening to him. He is trying to reconnect ALL Americans, no matter what party you belong to.
I smell that breath of fresh air... I see that light at the end of the tunnel... I feel the hope.
If you don't... well then, I will carry you. I will carry you through the skepticism and doubt because I have enough hope, belief, and faith for this moment in time, in the greatness of this country, and in you.
Giving out a cyber high 5!
