Yesterday

I watched the inauguration from work on a large TV with a less-than stellar picture. But that didn't matter because my eyes were cloudy already with tears. I don't know what to write here because I'm still discombobulated. But it's a good feeling of wackiness. A great feeling, in fact.

Something I never really thought would happen (well, at least not until I was old) did in fact happen. In addition, it was achieved by someone just a few years older than me. So even though I'm a bit wacked right now, I had to write something so I could look back on this later and retrieve this feeling of awe that anything IS possible even if you only half-believed that it could be.

So let us go out and find something seemingly impossible to believe in now. Like world peace.

I was there in person and yes, you have captured the feeling exactly!
