We won - but what does that imply?

I was watching it from the sidelines, so to speak. Listening to each new piece of news on the candidates, tuning in to the countless videos about this one or that one saying this or that against their opponent.

I saw the debates and began to feel passionately sure that Obama was what the country needed!

And I wasn't the only one. We were all feeling like that! We saw the outcome of the election going to the Democrats as the possible turning point in history - we saw Obama as our Leader.

So now - he's won! We've won! And what does that imply for the future? Will we begin to see an end to war in the Middle East? Will the damages to our environment be reckoned with and overcome? Will Obama reach leaders of other countries around the world so that we can all unite and fix our planet?

Much remains to be seen. But at any rate - it's a start! And for now, that implies a new beginning that we can all take part in!
