‘What does love look like? It has the hands to help others. It has the feet to hasten to the poor and needy. It has eyes to see misery and want. It has the ears to hear the sighs and sorrows of men …… That is what love looks like.’ - St. Augustine

Martin, I Hope You're Watching

~
Oh, how I wish he had lived to see this day, his day. Martin Luther King Junior dug the path that led us here. His dream is now our reality. Each of us, apart from our varying political beliefs, must recognize the significance of this day.
A seemingly insurmountable racial barrier has been not only surmounted, it has been knocked down.

I am so very proud of our country this day, I cannot even put it into words. Our world is forever changed. Forever. This is no overstatement. We have woken up to a new world....

Martin, thank you.

So, now I am proud, honored and humbled to be able to say welcome to our next President:

Barack Hussein Obama.....


Make Martin proud these next four years, Obama. Lead us well...
