Hope Reigns

I may be engaging in a little hubris here, but I believe that yesterday, November 4, 2008, is the most remarkable day of my lifetime as a citizen of these United States. This country experienced something that may change our collective destiny for the better in ways we can’t even begin to imagine. I am awed, stunned, delighted, and deliriously happy. And I am incredibly proud of us. We have given ourselves an opportunity to rise above our petty differences and create a positive and hopeful future for our children and their children's children. I hope and pray we can live up to our promise.

I pray that our United States once again enjoys the blessings of doing the right thing, by being a responsible global citizen and leading once more by example. When we are at our best, you can almost hear the angels sing.

Yesterday proves that hope reigns. Hallelujah!
