hallelujah- ode to a new era

Linka poignant opinion blog, And the Pursuit of Happiness- an artist/designer's reflection on the inaguration.

As someone who along with many other Americans, teared up during the inauguration (yes, I am known by many to tear up and get sentimental easily, but hey, this was an appropriate occasion)- out of the recognition of the historic nature of the occasion and also the excitement for what the future might bring for America and its identity- this is an incredible time to be an American. An interesting time to be in the Northeast as well. I'm excited to go to DC! Downtrodden, laid-off, uncertain America, this is still our time. And a good time.
