Change Has Come to America

I am:
happy
excited
exhilarated
moved
thoughtful
reminiscent
and
in awe.

The winds of change blowing through this country are warm, strong and bear on their currents a hope that I'm not sure I'll see again in my lifetime. Regardless of party affiliation, race, gender or color of skin, Americans today can and should rejoice in their freedom as citizens of the United States of America and embrace their ability to speak, act and live that freedom without fear of persecution. It is an historic day, and I thank my fortune to be a citizen of this fine country, and a proud supporter of our 44th President. Welcome, Barack Obama.
