I remember that quote from childhood. It is one of the phrases that I have pondered all of my life. Mostly it resonates inside of me as a thrilling little feeling around my heart.

When I think of today’s historic inauguration it is what came to mind. The un-daunting, ever-renewing hope that comes again from the darkest of nights. I hadn’t realized how turned off to politics, country, big business etc. I had become until Barack won the election. I couldn’t celebrate, I didn’t believe it was real, surely someone would take it away…..I had lost hope.

Today, I am almost in hope and my heart is full of wanting to believe. I will watch this inauguration of the first African/American to take the highest office of our land with many friends at a happy little brunch. And then I will be a witness and a partaker of just how Hope springs eternal in the hearts of all the peoples of the world.
