Ooooooh what a day! Obama is not moving into the White House, he is moving into HIS house. Maaaayne, this is good television.

I called a cousin of mine and we couldn't even talk. We were both just laughing and screaming with joy. We stayed on line for only about 10 seconds of giddy laughter.

GLORIOUS!

I am so PROUD of Barack and
that fabulous Michelle and
those beautiful princesses
Sasha and Malia.

PROUD really of this
whole nation.

It's just truly a BLESSING
to have this moment,

because I would never have
thought it was possible.

God bless BARACK and keep
the lion strong and safe.

Carey, what does that sign mean?

I'm not understanding it.

Well Kola, that was during my Flyboy days. It was in a time and place that was different than I had ever experienced. I was in Mississippi and about to go off to war. Although the sign was not meant for me, I sat down and took the picture as a symbol of "Negro what the hell are you doing here and what are you about to get yourself into". It's a railroad crossing. Yep, I was about to cross into something. Little did I know how big a step I was taking.

Young and dumb, I took flight.

Wow, Carey...

I'm so proud of you.

You stood up to so much in your
lifetime.

Where's my thang, Kola? You know what Iam talking about. Shhhhhesh, no secrets dropped on the board please.

I don't know Kola, although my blues may not be like others, I know we've all been somewhere.

I will stand and say "WHAT ABOUT A TIME CALLED NOW"!

I don't look the same and I most certainly do not have the same ideas and attitudes of the past. I believe everythin happens for a reason and god give us memories to lead us to our victories. I can assume that cynics will say "yeah but", however, when I came out of the storm I realized my problems were largely of my making and therefore I had to fix me. Now that is a tough task because I had to admit that I didn't know everything and that I was wrong on several issues. I have not arrived but I think I am a better person than I was years ago. I am cool with my place in life. I have little regrets. There was a time when I found little joy in most things in life. I lost my ability to laugh. I lost hope. In my struggle to remain alive (alive and not just surviving) I had to go deep inside myself and find core issues that few wish to look at, let alone try to amend.

I am not different, I have just traveled a different road.
