  • Mood Swings and Rainy Days

    Monday, July 14, 2008

    Having had my share of feeling so low a worm could crawl over me without going uphill or down, I know how hard it is to get back up and face the world - esp. knowing that the world is just waiting to knock ya back down again. (sigh - It's the nature of the "beast").

    I think we can all agree tonight is a historic night. Regardless of how you feel about Obama I hope we are all inspired by the amazing turnout and the emotional investment in this election we have never seen before.

    I have lots of hopes and desires, and things I dream of. 
    I know my legs may be useless, I may travel b...
