Well it happened. History happened. And YOU were alive to SEE it! How cool is that? The first African-American President in American history! It only took 220 years, people.
So now we wait and see. What will happen? Will President Obama bring us the change we so desperately need? I'm not sure, but there seems to be a new feeling rolling across this country-HOPE. It's refreshing, isn't it? HOPE! Haven't had it in a while.
I don't know if you voted for Barack Obama. I don't know if you even like the guy. But look at it this way: whether you like him or not, it was time to call the bullpen and get a new kid on the mound. Well, we got one! And honestly, I DON'T know if he'll be a great President. I don't know if he'll bring us the change we need. But I know a change did us good, so let's give the new kid a chance, OK?
Honestly, he couldn't do much worse, right?
One more thing: remember it's OK to wish and hope for change, but it's better to BE the change you wish for. Don't sit back and expect this thing to happen around you. BE A PART OF IT.
