Just for today, we will revel in this victory. In this wall that has been blown down. We will revel in the dream that has been realized, the one that Martin Luther King Jr. talked about in his famous speech. We will revel in the joy of idealism, and the power that the people still have to believe in change, look past a man's skin to the person he is within. We will revel in the fact that negativity and evil words, ad hominem attacks and false witness did not prevail. We will soak it in.
And tomorrow? We will get to work. There is still work to be done. There is still poverty, oppression, hurt. And we start NOW.
Thank you Lord, that you hear and answer the cry of the oppressed. And always, always have.
How about you? What does this mean to you?
T, who is still crying
