I remember that day as if it were yesterday...

Coming home from my job that Obama gave to me under democracy, at a Subway sandwich place.

I turned on the TV that even though was small and humble, provided me with entertainment.

There I saw, the news broadcast. My heart skipped a beat.

I can't remember what I was holding, but I dropped it on the floor. I fell to my knees. I began to softly sob. The news broadcaster went into details. I cried even more. I couldn't believe it. I laid on the floor in a fetal position, lying in a puddle of tears.

But my tears were not of sorrow. They were of joy. I sniffled up, and wiped away the tears, then I weakly smiled at the great new future ahead of not only me as an individual, or even the local community, but the entire world.

Here is what made me cry in joy....
