…and I’m feeling good! (paraphrasing Nina Simone, not Michael Buble, thanks.)

I know you don’t come to this blog for political opinion, so I will keep this short.

I am just so happy about the choice Americans made yesterday. Maybe I am still riding high on the euphoria created by cheering with thousands of my Ft. Greene neighbors, who spontaneously gathered on the streets to celebrate after Obama won the election, but I feel as if we are embarking on a new, brilliant, era in this nation; one marked by unity, respect, and hard work toward the fulfillment of a 232-year old promise. I might sound corny, but my feelings can’t be more deeply felt. This a great day; one that is, I hope, a harbinger of many more great days to come.
