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!
