Ch-Ch-Ch-Changes!

Nobody knows what the future has in store for us, but we are certainly on the cusp of great change. Over the next few years we will see a different America. I will be a bit more optimistic than usual and say that it will be better than what we experienced over the last eight years.
This nation is stirring, waking from a nightmare and coming to its senses. For this beautiful moment, people have come together. People seem to care again. A better world might manifest, and it might not, but right now there is potential.
I know that only two or three people are going to read this post, but this is really meant for all of America, and even for all of the world: remember how this feels. Remember how it feels to want change and to make it happen. For so long, we chose pessimism and mistrust over optimism and the common good. For this shining moment that has the potential to be undone. Remember how this feels.
