New Day

First Black President of United States of America. Wow! I never thought I would say that. Somehow I had taken joy in watching Morgan Freeman playing president in many movies and settled to the fact that, thats as good as it gets. But today it has finally happened, a new day is here where a black man (ok semi black man) has taken over the reigns of the most powerful nation and possibly the world. It does make me proud to call myself an Indian-American. I see hope and future. If a man born to an immigrant Dad and a white mother, raised pretty much like anybody else, can reach the pinnacle of political greatness then anything is possible in the great nation. But, it does sadden me when I think of what he stands for. That's what scares me. I just hope & pray that the good Lord will give President-elect Obama the wisdom and knowledge to run this country efficiently. But today, we celebrate. May HIS will be done.

Peace!
