Hope is reviving.
A vibrant spirit fills the air. Today is a new day. Today is historic.
We are shifting into a conscious realm where equality becomes a hope for all people. Just like Obama said in his election speech last night, regardless of party affiliation, sex, age, race, gay, straight, or disability, we are here today. We are more united than ever because for the first time in our history, we have chosen someone based on merit rather than power. It truly feels like a new country.
A country that for so long has oppressed the powerless. A country rich in propaganda tactics utilized to enforce its military presence. A country that claimed it was united but always felt divided. A country where the rich and homogenous have ruled.
But not today.
Today we breathe a new sense of hope. It's a victory across the world because we are evolving as people. We are aware of our impact on this earth. Equality is within reach for many of us.
I now feel that the day will come much sooner than later when I can marry. A day where women will earn just as much as men. A day where we work together in collaboration rather than sit back in self-absorbtion. A day where we can start to erase the line between majority and minority.
It's epic. It's history. It's a new hope.
Today we are. We're here.
It is a new day.
