Tears of Joy, Relief, and Pride

Every time I stop and really digest the reality of what happened Tuesday night, I begin to cry. And then I find a slideshow of others reacting to Obama, and I cry some more. My favorite part is watching people around the world rejoice in the hope of change to come (this, of course, also makes me cry).

The slide in which he is signing the flag that covered a soldier's casket says it all. Obama is so dignified and respectful - yet an empathetic family man - it's hard to imagine GWB eliciting that response.
