Yes We Can

And yes we did. I can't even begin to describe how I felt yesterday, holding my girlfriend's hand listening to our new President-Elect give his acceptance speech. I was so overcome with feelings. I cried tears of happiness, tears of hope, and tears of relief. His words were so moving and so full of promise. And I believe he is the man that will fulfill those promises. I kept saying "he makes me want to go plant a tree!" It's true. He makes me want to get involved. And he makes me believe that we can rebuild this country "block by block, brick by brick, calloused hand by calloused hand."
