Final thoughts on the historic night

Posted in Eric on November 7, 2008 by Eric

With each generation we lose a little bit of our personal prejudices through education, new relationships and the emerging global community. Technology has allowed the world to reach across physical boundaries and touch someone different from us. We are able to share our lives with people on the other side of the world and at the same time get a glimpse into their lives. We celebrate together during times of elation and unite in times of crisis. What we witnessed last night together was the past slowly passing the torch to the future, where personal prejudices are slowly giving way to mutual understanding. In some places, it may take another 100 years, but with each new generation, we give hope that the future is just a little bit better.

Elections are never about holding on to the past, no matter how routine or extraordinary that past may be. Elections are about stepping into the future and embracing hope. A hope that the future is just a little bit better than today. A hope that each new generation will push the boundaries of not only what is, but also of what can be.

Electing Barack Obama as the first African American president of the United States of America is not the end to that arduous journey. It is another step in the road that proves we are truly judging a man by the strength of his character and not the color of his skin. His presidency signals only the first step down a long road, a road that we must travel together as one nation, one world and one people.

One day, we may reach the end of that journey and achieve the perfect union envisioned by those that came before us. Until then, let us march on. Let us take destiny in our own hands and shape the future through our hard work and determination.

History – YES WE CAN!

What more can I say on the eve of the most important election in my life..

Please go out and cast your vote - regardless of your political affiliations, please exercise your privilege to stand in that booth. The only way a democracy can work is for people to participate in it.

Vote for John McCain or for Barack Obama. The most important thing is that you vote.

No matter how insignificant you may think, your vote does count.

let’s go change the world!
