The fact that he is our president-elect is more thrilling than I can say, and it's so lovely to know that there is a light at the end of our tunnel. Lots of hard work ahead of him and us, but I feel so comfortable in trusting him to guide us.
I'm not one to have much faith in politicians of *any* stripe, and I was a late convert to the Obama camp (I was pulling for Hillary in the primaries). But in the last few months I have been so inspired by this man, and his intelligence, thoughfulness, eloquence, and determination have more than won me over.
He's inhertiting a bunch of huge problems, none of which will be easy to untangle, and the road ahead will be tough. But right now the glimmers of hope for the future and faith in my country and its leaders -- both of which were hidden somewhere deep down in my hardened, cynical old soul -- have been renewed.
I have my fingers crossed that brighter days lie ahead if we can all work together to make that so.

YES WE DID! And yes, there's a lot more to do. But I think we're ready for it!
Thanks for all your inspiration, Leah!
