to walk around my school at 12:00 o'clock in the afternoon of January 20th, 2009 and see EVERY available TV and computer screen tuned into the 44th President of the United States of America's Inauguration was so shocking. I had almost seriously lost all hope in our generation, but to see EVERY student of my school actually listening to President Obama, made me so hopeful for our future.
Hopeful, that maybe one day our generation can live up to the expectations placed upon us and that we all can know that anything is possible, ANYTHING!
Hopeful, that everyone will seriously believe that anything is possible and that there is NO limitations to what you can do, not the color of your skin, your heritage, or how you were raised.
Hopeful, that the racism that flows through the veins of the people in our country can run dry and that we can all work together, hopefully spilling out to the rest of the world and planting roots for a renewed hope of peace.
Hopeful, that the next four years of my life, will be the greatest and the U.S.A. will rise from the funk it is currently in and rise to power again and be an example for the world.
Hopeful, that after four years of change and upcoming, that four more years will follow and improve the nation more.
