Things that make me cry

Sometimes I cry easily. The other day, a middle aged black woman brought a print into my store. It was a portrait of Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King. Underneath his picture was gold script lettering: "The Dreamer." In the upper right hand corner was a portrait of Barack Obama. Underneath his picture was also gold script lettering: "The Dream."

I started tearing up and when I later recounted this story, I really started tearing up again. It is such a powerful, beautiful sentiment when put that way.

I so hope his term in office will be one of the best we have ever had.
