The Dream

On this holiday day of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. I give thanks. I give thanks to the lord for allowing me to live this moment and all the moments of my life. Tomorrow I will see and witness the first African American President to enter the white house. He will be the 44th President of our Country-President Barack Obama.I am proud and I know I have shed a tear like so many others and I am thankful for it. Everyone says that there is no reason to dream anymore because we have made it. We are still far from it. Obama can't fight the fight alone. He will need all of us to make this happen. Yes this was a major step for our country but there is still so much that can be done. We still have a dream to full fill. But at least now it doesn't seem impossible. The sky is finally the limit. There is no more you can't or it won't happen. The happiness that I see from my grandmother lets me know that they feel,the ones that went thru the civil rights movement,they feel at ease in a sense. It makes it seem even more that the fight was not for nothing. I am happy she gets to live this moment like so many others. And I pray that we have many more firsts and special dreams to look forward to. I am sure that Dr. King looks down on all of us and is proud of the accomplishments that we have made.But he knows that we have much more that we can and will achieve.Never stop dreaming.
