YAY! OBAMA!

Can I just say that I am over the top happy about Obama winning? I am not only happy that he has has won, I am happy about what this symbolizes for us. This means that the shift is really happening. The shift that so many of us are talking about these days. Here is further validation that we collectively have gotten our vibration high enough to accept a president who has heart and deeply cares about us. I have never been more proud of the American people than I am right now.
I did not vote for Obama because of the color of his skin. With that said, I feel that his having a darker shade of color than mine is the icing on the cake. Not only have we elected someone who is genuine, we have made a big leap in chipping away this horrific "spell" that the states fell into so many years ago. Thinking that people could be property! Slavery, that word alone makes me want to weep. This is a giant leap for the recognition that we are all one race. I enjoy the different colors of the world. There is so much richness in culture, so much we can learn from each other. But at the end of the day, we are truly not different or separate at all.
Obama is a symbol of hope. A symbol of the good that is headed our way. Of course this will not happen overnight, but the wait will be well worth it.
My deepest desire is to see us as human beings understand that we are in this together. We do nothing alone. We do nothing that does not effect the world. There is not one place on planet earth where we could ship people we do not like and not impacted by them. We are all different strokes on a canvas, but we are a part of the same painting. Not one stroke is waisted. Not one stroke does not belong. Collectively we make the painting more beautiful. Let's embrace that.
