I am feeling a something I haven't felt in about 8 years patriotic.
Patriotic is a feeling sadly I haven't felt in a long time. Don't get me wrong I love America, I just haven't felt represented by my leaders or agreed with the direction we have been headed for the last two terms of the Bush administration. No I did not vote for him or his Dad.
I love the American flag but unfortunately have not felt like flying one Since Bush invaded Iraq. It almost felt like the flag was hijacked as a symbol for the right wing war machine not a symbol of freedom and honor.
I feel like we have elected a President who can take America in to the future. Last night I heard a news caster say the world is smaller and more crowded. This is so true it is time to think globally. I watched the BBC this A.M. and felt proud of the way the U.S. is being looked at by other countries, un like the embarrassment of the last two elections.
I am a proud American this morning and dare I say hopeful for our future.
