You may be asking yourself, how can I make such a statement? With all of the economic chaos that we are currently experiencing on a global level. I agree we are all being affected in one way or another, but I couldn't let the depression of the economy allow me to miss this historical moment go unnoticed. My heart is filled with admiration, gratitude and praise for the many....many heroes (too many to name) that have gone before us. They sacrificed their lives and the lives of their families for justice, hope, equality and peace. Heck, they sacrificed just for the chance to be on the same playing field. Today that sacrifice is being realized! I praise God that I am an eyewitness! I can now share with my grand and great-grand children about this day from a birds eye view.
Depressing times will come and go, but there will never be another first time for an African American Presidential Nominee! A man that has the wherewithal to be the President, Chief Commanding Officer of the United States of America. I am living it! We are living it!! We have always been qualified and capable, but on a global platform all of those old demons: racism, prejudices, stereotypes and plain of ignorance that lives in the souls of many people gets to also witness this truth. Whether you are voting for Sen. Obama (I AM!) or not you are still sitting in the circle of such a transitional time---in TIME! It is truly a great time to be ALIVE!! |
