Life is a procession of fleeting moments, all of which collectively represent our chance do do something major, to change something; make a difference in what we call our lifetime.
On January 20, 2009 at 12:05 p.m. we all bore witness as that penultimate goal of two of our fellow men came into fruition in the form of the inauguration of Barack Hussein Obama as the 44th President of the United States and the first of African American descent.
Let this serve as a reminder to us, strengthen our personal resolves: reinforce us. Impossible is no longer a finite and unreachable deterministic state...but merely a class of phenomenon one need only work a little harder on to realize. To Dr. King and the fruition of his dream in Washington D.C., 40 years later on the opposite end of the land on which it had been deferred by his untimely death. May the legacy of this and all other men who've contributed continue to manifest themselves in the improvement of this world. To President Obama, Congratulations and all respect due. And most importantly, to change, prosperity, and the pursuit of happiness.
1968-2008, what happens to a dream deferred is its realization at the right time.
