An extraordinary day in my life and the lives of others
This post is extremely personal to me. I don’t even know if I can convey what I truly feel right now. It is 11:25 p.m. on January 20, 2009 and I spent the entire day watching Barack Obama’s inauguration as the 44th President of the United States. Today for me was a day of such emotion. As I write this I am still tearful and emotional. Tears of joy and laughter. Tears of hope. Tears of progress. I watched Pres. Obama become president never forgetting what his forefathers struggled and fought through to make this day possible. What Dr. King and his ancestors, contemporaries and legacies worked so hard to achieve. What I never thought but always hoped I would see in my lifetime. I watched Pres. Obama become president knowing how hard I and others worked over the last few years to get to this day. Believing in change. Believing in hope. Believing in this man who we wholeheartedly feel will continue to make the United States a great nation. I am so overcome with emotion after today’s events. After celebrating them all day I now settle in by myself to absorb the enormity of the events and the immense tasks that lie ahead for him and everyone. It won’t be easy. He’ll make mistakes. But tonight, I lay my head down exhausted, thrilled, overwhelmed, yet so peaceful. As I said in my last post, give this man the opportunity to make us greater than we are. I go to bed with a smile and hope and trust.
