I want a baby.
Like I know that having a kid right now would not be the move…but my biological clock is on thump mode. I love babies. How they look, how they smell, the cute little clothes. That is a horrible reason to give birth. Luckily, I’m logical enough to understand that these are natural urges and I choose not to let them go any further. Oh, but I want one. LOL! I just want to hold my baby in my arms and love him.
oh well….
I never had faith in this country. I’m fortunate to have made friends of all colors and races but I was always so convinced that there was vast majority of ignorance in this country. I am proud to be an American. I’m Black, but this was never about race for me. I felt let down in 2000 and 2004, like my vote didn’t count. I promised myself that this election I was doing a whole lot more than casting a vote. I traveled to Indiana and Kentucky to volunteer on this campaign. The 8am – 11:30 pm days, call banking, canvassing (sometimes in the projects) was all worth it and I’d do it again. I was happy to see so many people young and old out voting and being active.
Last night, my heart felt like it was going to explode. I spent the night almost afraid to go to sleep because I thought this was all a dream.
I am honored to call Barack Hussein Obama, my president.
