Today is an historical moment for the nation. I cannot say just for me or my family, although I will be celebrating with 4 generations tonight, I cannot begin to describe the series of emotions flowing through me. I have always voted from the time I turned 18 to now...and I have to say that this is the most defining moment in my life! I watched as my my mother and father, both in their 70's vote...my mother with tears in her eyes and to be honest, my father got mistyeyed as well...it was amazing to see the number of African American's standing in line today...A LINE!!! I have never stood in a line to vote ever, and this morning I stood in line for an hour, which I know isn't long compared to some areas, but for our area here, which is traditionally a RED county although Maryland is a blue state, I was amazed and elated. My heart soared seeing these people standing in line...neighbors talking, and strangers embracing one another all of us with this look of hope and a burning...
