Electricity is in the air. Excitement is seen on faces of all colors, shapes and ages. Everyone awaits a great moment in our country's history; the inauguration of a president who represents the blend of America and the hope of our country and the world.
The focus of the country and world is on Washington; out with the old and in with the new. How long will our country patiently wait? How long will the other party wait before they begin an assault on the actions of the new presidency?
This reminds me of the atmosphere after 9/11 for unity and healing. Can that be sustained for long? It seems to me as long as Obama continues to reach out to people regardless of party lines and as long as he understands that healing can only occur after forgiveness; looking ahead and not at the past except for historical reasons, there is a good chance this atmosphere can last.
When America works together amazing things can be accomplished. We have the opportunity to forge new ideals by creating energy independence, breakthroughs in medical science, and new concepts in communication.
I'm excited and continue to be inspired by the prospects of a bright future and an erasing of color lines. What a great time to be alive.
We must remember that out of disaster comes new and wonderful things. Old things must die for new things to be born. That is just the way God created this world. Let's get involved and become a part of this new birth.
