Change has come

Last night our country made history! Barack Obama won the Presidency. I feel so hopeful today. How wonderful that our country no longer sees black or white. We just see who is the best person for the job. Obama will surely help us gain back respect in the world, improve our economy, assure that everyone has basic healthcare. I just looked out my window, and there is a beautiful rainbow in the sky! This is what I saw. The picture is not as good as real life, but there is a faint rainbow visible between the trees. In real life, it was bright and clear.



What a wonderful sight that was. That gave me a sense of peace and hope. Now we must all come together and work at making this country strong once more. Obama's speech was wonderful and he reached out to those who did not support him. Let's hope they will reach out too and we can all work together to get out of this economic crisis. I feel so blessed to be raising my children in a time like this. My parents raised us to believe that all people should be equal, but we still noticed that wasn't really happening. My children can now see, that all people really are equal, and every child has a chance to achieve whatever dream they dream. Change truly has come!
