ever since the decision came down friday, I haven't been feeling anything good or bad about it. Not to say that I have no reaction, but emotionally I've been numb.
so it gives me some hope that I am not shutting down entirely when I still get angry at the person who has been making me miserable. Looking at me twice? I'll stare you down. As you can tell, I get angry when he is around.
but enough about that.
Last night was a historic moment. As my sister and I talked about, this is the second major happening in our lifetime, the first one being September 11th. This will be something that I will tell my grandkids about many years from now.
I know that not everything can get done, but I really do feel like a major societal change is now underway. It won't happen overnight, but the way we function as a society and in the global realm will be radically different than it is now.
So here is to America, to change, and to the many great things that are coming in the years ahead.
