Granted, I'm going to reserve some praise for the man until I see what exactly goes down in office, but today.. I feel different. I feel less embarrassed to be an American. I feel like a corner has been passed. I feel like for once in this country we can honestly say that we are equal. Policies aside, this has been an amazing race on both ends of the spectrum. I feel like Obama could honestly be a catalyst for change.. not the solution, but the catalyst. I feel like America finally did something right.. they finally pulled their heads out of their asses and had a say in what they wanted. I feel like the world was watching and in some areas a sigh of relief was heard, while in other areas, a sense of fear was struck. Struck not because of the man who was elected, but because Americans looked and acted like they were one country. The world knows that when our people are united, we are unstoppable.
I feel as though a weight has been lifted off the shoulders of people who have passed and those who will come into the world. I feel like anything is again possible. I feel.. proud.
