Scripture exhorts to let all that we do be done in love. I have much to say about the certain direction of this country with a President who clearly has a solid grasp on this concept. I am still trying to contain my thoughts enough to be somewhat coherent in this posting so I will leave it for now.
We have not been this way before..........

Vowing Change
WoW! It is the night before the Inaugural of President Obama. Every thing within me feels so alive. I am fully alert. Completely conscious. I seem to be so aware of where I am. What I am doing. I am thinking about who I am and what is defines who I am. I am marking this moment as I never have before. Tomorrow life changes. The world as I ~ we know it will forever change.
I imagine that I will feel this way on the night before my wedding as I contemplate making a lifetime vow to love my Beloved. It will indeed be one the most transformational moments of my life. It feels that way tonight.
No more -Elect. Mr. Obama will be our President. The leader of the free world. No longer an aspiration but an actualization. I will not attempt to project how I will feel as our 44th Commander-in-Chief takes his oath of office because I want to live in the moment that it actually happens.
What I can say is how my heart is so completely filled with beauty and joy. I have Dr. King's birthday celebrating in the spirit of how he lived his life, caring about the well-being of others. This "Day On" has a new level of significance because it is truly "On" now.
Tonight is a moment of demarcation. Tomorrow will be a moment of destiny.
Much will change.
Much has changed.
There is so much more change to come.
Mr. President as you vow to faithfully serve, know that I ~ we stand with you. I also promise to fulfill that which is given to me to assist you in advancing the change that is so desired.
Let's vow to change ~ together!

Joy Comes in the Morning ~ ~ ~
Just 8 more days until the Inaugural of our 44th president. On Election Night ~ V-Day! ~ I was mindful it would be 77 days until the President-elect would officially be in office.
It seems so very long ago.
The discussion, dialogue and debates have continued about the significance of Barack Hussein Obama being our next Commander-and-Chief. The campaign for change has taken on manifold dimensions since the election. A kaleidoscope of perspectives exists. What we see depends on the vantage point of our view. Throughout the protracted campaign, I learned to stay focused on the goal and do all that I could to contribute to the real possibilities of victory.
And victors we remain. Empowered to create the world that desire and deserve. Things are challenging on many fronts. The state of our economy and the status of world events pleads for a brighter day.
Hope is on the horizon.
The breaking of day approaches.
Not only because Obama will be officially be the president but because we can without delay, personally and collectively, take responsibility for the change that we declared.
So while I have quite mindful of the great day approaching, my count-down has not been unfruitful waiting. I have continually been conscious of my obligation to be and do my best today.
Yes joy is coming but the truth is that it is already here. The ushering into another level of purpose and destiny is progressive by design. I have learned to live in the moment and learn the lessons this day's life is teaching.
So let's embrace, be enlightened and enJOY today as we look forward to the promised beauty that tomorrow and most certainly January 20th will bring.
