What inspires you? Change(.) (Y)ou can(.) (B)elieve in(.) You/r/self.
I guess I should start with the obvious, and everyone and they mama has covered it and said it way more eloquently then I feel that I could, so I’ll just recap so as not to look oblivious/apathetic/unenthusiastic.
Obama/Biden pwned McCain/Palin in ‘08.
Prop. 2 and Prop. 8 passed. Wow. As a State, Californians have basically said that we care more for the well being of chickens then the human equality. Shameful.
*sigh* Hopehopehopechangehope and now… the next movement…
I echo many of Mr. Senbei’s sentiments… a bittersweet symphony indeed. I pray (in the literal sense for once) that it is indeed darkest before the dawn.
So yeah, November 4th, 2008 will forever go down in the history books that the United States of America elected its first Hawaiian born President. On a personal note, it also marks the day things have gone from, “It’s complicated” to… something more simplified *wink* If this part gets confusing, and it sounds like I’m being ambiguous or vague, well, thats because I’m doing it on purpose =D
In our time learning from each other, you have inspired and challenged me in a lot of different way. The most significant and sacred to me however, is your support and encouragement to put into motion the achievement of my most far fetched and loftiest goals and dreams. Thank you for helping blaze these new trails in my life, and helping me to fulfill some of these dreams already. I promise your efforts will not be wasted, and to always support and encourage you, regardless of where our paths may take us from here. You are my embodied providence, and I am happy to have hoodwinked 
And “Thank you” for this…
“Until one is committed, there is hesitancy, the chance to draw back, always ineffectiveness concerning all acts of initiative and creation. There is one elementary truth, the ignorance of which kills countless ideas and splendid plans; That the moment one definitely commits oneself, then providence moves too.
All sorts of things occur to help one that would never otherwise have occurred. A whole stream of events issues from the decision raising in one’s favor all manner of unforeseen events, meetings, and material assistance which no one could have dreamed would come their way.
I have learned a deep respect for Goethe’s couplets: “Whatever you can do or dream you can, begin it. Boldness has genius, power, and magic in it. Begin it Now!”
