A New Morning

Today was of those days that opens up like it should be in the opening of a movie or a chapter in a book.

I woke up, took a shower, had some cereal, Donovan went back to La Conner and I headed to school. The road felt prefect, like it should, wet autumn weather with the last of the leaves bursting in hues of orange, red, and yellow. I took a deep breath, I felt anew, a weight taken off my shoulders. Last night was the tipping point. Things feel fresh and open. I don't feel scared or ashamed or resentful. The keel is even and I'm ready for it.

I know what Obama says can seem corny or to good to be fulfilled. But I truly believe things are going to get better. If anything, I just can't wait to be proud of my president.
