Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow

"I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character."
-MLK

In celebration of today and tomorrow and big dreams that come true, hooray for us all!

Obama's inauguration speech was, I think, the best speech I've ever heard. Living so close to DC and hearing all the local excitement has really added to this wonderful day.

Wow that was pretty spectacular. Americans just really can do a fabulous inauguration day. Your new president is very inspirational and an amazing orator...that speech was incredible. I think it's wonderful that Americans feel inspired - I sense that has not been the case for the last eight years. Someone said (can't remember where I read this) that a true leader is most effective when he or she can inspire hope within the people who they lead.
