The things that elicit great emotion from most people usually leave me cold. Tonight while surrounded by tears, praises to Jesus, and chants of "We have no more excuses!!", I found myself isolated and unmoved. No melancholy associated with it, after a while just a state of disbelief. Even though I had joked that a win for Obama, would produce a World Series type of euphoria, I was still unprepared for the reality of it.
There seemed to be a collective feeling of the books being balanced, a push button revolution. 400 years of guilt resolved and the needle on the gauge of black anger swinging from the red to the white, in one cathartic moment.
cleaned slate?
