We stop for a few moments today to acknowledge the long, disciplined journey taken by our new president, Barack Hussein Obama and to open our hearts and minds to the possibilities that exist when we are more curious than critical and when we stand on our own two feet without unnecessary fear.
May we embrace the admiration the rest of the world has bestowed on him today, and together create new realities that benefit the many and disrespect none.
Go Obama!
Go people!
Love,
Roxanne and Shane

This is a glorious day! America has united and we have Hope again and his name is President Obama! Woo-Hooooooooo! He speaks the dreams every decent person has on this Earth.
I celebrate and embrace this new day with admiration, exhilarating relief, and joy with you, all America, and the whole world! Yeah!
As the Canadian husband of an American wife I’m thrilled that my wife is proud to be an American after nearly 40 yrs in Canada. She moved here in 1971 as a protest to the Vietnam War. I know that she is not alone in this new found pride. I work with several Expat Americans and the sentiment is the same. A great relief not having to hide the fact that you are a proud Yank.
I like the way you filed this post under the tag “Aloha” – NICE! Mahalo for this post.
@Celeste – your joy fills out on the page! Thank you for stopping by and sharing this commitment.
@Colin – that is quite a story. You two are of my generation and I hope that Obama becomes the 2.0 or new and improved version of the idealism we had in the 70s.
@Shawnotay – well you know Obama is from here, sort of, and his graciousness certainly is one of the characteristics of Aloha. :-)
