Soul on Fire: "This Is Our Moment, This Is Our Time...."

[mythyc]

America, this is our moment. This is our time. Our time to turn the page on the policies of the past. Our time to bring new energy and new ideas to the challenges we face. Our time to offer a new direction for the country we love.

The journey will be difficult. The road will be long. I face this challenge with profound humility, and knowledge of my own limitations. But I also face it with limitless faith in the capacity of the American people. Because if we are willing to work for it, and fight for it, and believe in it, then I am absolutely certain that generations from now, we will be able to look back and tell our children that this was the moment when we began to provide care for the sick and good jobs to the jobless; this was the moment when the rise of the oceans began to slow and our planet began to heal; this was the moment when we ended a war and secured our nation and restored our image as the last, best hope on Earth. This was the moment - this was the time - when we came together to remake this great nation so that it may always reflect our very best selves, and our highest ideals.

The most powerful rhetorical moment and deliberation I have ever been fortunate enough to witness. It's what I sometimes imagine being there 45 years ago would have felt like and meant to those present when MLK shared articulated and ordained his dream.

I'm speechless. Immanence ~ this moment the promise, in our better natures unfolding. Our aseity, our provenance, and pride.

This is the moment, this is the time.

This is our moment, this is our time.

Thank you and bless you, Barack, for awakening and galvanizing the generation this monumental and inimitable epoch demands.

True Faith is more powerful than fear, when a true soul on fire we hear.

12. My sister said the funniest thing..."He should have dropped the mike" if he was holding it that

night. It was the greatest speech I have ever heard. I liked how he got progressively worked up. The man looked like he was going to start a riot on the stage. People looked like they were ready to start low income houses, dump the gas stations and figure out a way to make cars run on potato. <---We have a lot of potatos.
