"There comes a time when you must stand alone. You must feel confident enough within yourself to follow your own dreams. You must be willing to make sacrifices. You must be capable of changing and rearranging your priorities so that your final goal can be achieved. Sometimes, familiarity and comfort need to be challenged. There are times when you must take a few extra chances and create your own realities. Be strong enough to at least try to make your life better. Be confident enough that you won't settle for a compromise just to get by. Appreciate yourself by allowing yourself the opportunities to grow, develop and find your true sense of purpose in this life. "
Found this surfing online and it definitely spoke to me, so I'm sharing it with you.

The Day of All Days (Braving the freeze for Obama)
I will never forget January 20, 2009. Nothing can truly sum up the emotions I felt on the day Senator Barack Obama was sworn in as our 44th President of the United States of America. I can tell my children that I was there, and brings the biggest smile to my face. We (my sister, her boyfriend and his friends) got up at 5am and made it over to the capital by 6am. It was freezing, the subways were packed, but it was all worth it.
Here are my pics from that amazing day...just a little something. I tried to get as much as I could. It was SO cold!
Leyla the next day getting ready to work one of the Inaugural Balls...
That's it. =)
Love Obama.
