TEARS

I could not contain my tears of joy today watching the Inauguration of President Obama. 

Like this pic of him taken in Hawaii over the holidays, he’s a natural man.  Everyman.  As he takes office, a new world rises.  Here’s to a New You.

This President is a hugger [how refreshing!], goes shirtless, has rhythm, and is a writer. 

And to think I 'discovered' him in 2004 when he gave that rousing, dynamic speech at the DNC.  At least I felt like I did! Nobody I knew had ever heard of this man. Who WAS this beacon?!  I certainly took note.  He had my full attention, and still does. 

And to think two years ago I came 'this close' to an interview with him . . . However, I won't give up hope for an interview in the near future.  He wouldn't.
