Hope - such a small word, but full of so much promise. We have elected Barak Obama as our first African American president - a harvard graduate who learned from an early age the importance of community.
Building community, bridging differences, finding room for tolerance are all qualities we strive to live every day and now the leader of our country will be doing the same.
A man on NPR today said: "Rosa Parks sat, so that Martin Luther King Jr could walk. Martin Luther King Jr walked so that Barak Obama could run. Barak Obama ran so that one day we could fly."
Let's spread our wings and on the winds of HOPE, may we soar to heights of equality, tolerance and understanding, the likes of which this country has never dreamed of.
Namaste
