"We have chosen hope over fear." ~President Barack Obama, January 20, 2009
I've been watching TV all day. Strangely, I didn't get bored! I listened attentively to every word our new President spoke. And I liked it.
While watching his speech, one line popped out at me and at the end, I wrote it down, saying to myself, "That spoke powerfully to me, that was the best part. THAT is what I'm going to remember most about this speech!"
I get online an hour ago and what do I see? The exact - EXACT - line I wrote down. True story.
I love him. I love THEM! Did you see how she playfully slapped him on the chest and he laughed? Did you see, while watching a band march by during the parade, he was dance/swaying a little, and he 'bumped' Michelle with his hip and they laughed!?! I think I really love them.
I feel recharged today.
"Today I say to you that the challenges we face are real. They are serious and they are many.
They will not be met easily or in a short span of time. But know this, America - they will be met. On this day, we gather because we have chosen hope over fear, unity of purpose over conflict and discord. On this day, we come to proclaim an end to the petty grievances and false promises, the recriminations and worn out dogmas, that for far too long have strangled our politics." ~ President Barack Obama
