Goodbye cruel world,
I’m leaving you today.
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye.

Goodbye all you people
There’s nothing you can say
To change my mind

Goodbye

I awoke at 5:45 am to the cover of darkness.  A silent mist caressed the sky and cooled the air.  An ominous calm fell silent across the day.  Years of waiting, hoping and dreaming has come down to this morning.  At 6:30 am I joined several hundred fellow patriots who have chosen this day to care; who have chosen this day to speak out with the power that is granted to us who believe.

“Change will not come if we wait for some other person or some other time. We are the ones we’ve been waiting for. We are the change that we seek.”
Senator Barack Obama

At 6:55 am I cast my vote for Barack Obama to be the next president of the United States of America.

Not into sharing much lately.  Have lots to think about and say, just keeping it all in.  It’s an introvert kind of thing.  So deal.

Just to keep this blog thing going and feel like I haven’t totally abandoned the effort I’ll take the slacker way out.  Here’s a meme I lifted from Kapgar.
