And, yes I am thrilled and excited about the future of this country, but also feeling a little despondent over my now completely red county! Although, we do live in a blue state now don't we?!! As for this post election exhaustion -- well, I think a spa day might be in order! LOL Just a thought -- why is red associated with the right wing in this country, when in the rest of the world it's left of left of left? That was such a great story about your time in South Africa.

I actually talked about it in my baby yoga classes this moring becasue I just couldn't get it out of my head. I feel like there is a small light again! Although the same-sex marraige deal is unbelievable to me. Don't we have bigger issues going on in the world? I mean really!

I hope we Americans can come together and work together instead of trying to rip each other apart over our differences. I am ready to start the next chapter.

How amazing to have witnessed such extraordinary events unfold in your lifetime. I have a post brewing but I can't get it together enough to write just yet. I'm still an emotion and spent meanderer right now. Your words about Nelson Mandela gave me goose bumps. How amazing to have witnessed such extraordinary events unfold in your lifetime.
