I believe in change
Not sure why but I woke up at 6am this morning.As many of you know, I believe in change, I believe in Barack Obama.Today marks a historical day that I didn't think I would see happen, a black man representing equal change is hours away from winning. What I think is even more inspiring is, although I am not american I feel an incredible sense of empowerment. I more than ever see that nothing is impossible and if you can dream it you can do it.
Just as I never thought this day would come it is here. For Barack himself we can only imagine how overwhelming it must be to be at the verge of actualizing what you have been told was impossible. Clearly there are more imposing factors but the realization of his dreams, despite the many obstacles that were placed in his way, that is a honorable lesson that anyone can take away. I guess I woke up early because I feel inspired and I want to reflect on how I can "make change" in my own respect, despite my obstacles and nay sayers.I think its important to not only look at Barack and the great things he has accomplished but also how his dedication and perseverance have made progress for us and can compel us to "make change" in our respective lives.That is the type of political impact I want. Just my thoughts, I am gonna get my day started early.Think and create change through my day. D./ wearing my thinking cap today
