Forty-five years ago today, our world was changed.
Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. delivered his passionate hallmark speech, commonly referred to as the "I have a dream speech."
Hope. Vision. Courage. Fortitude. Equality. Harmony. Peace.
The fact that the anniversary of this event falls on the very day that an African-American will deliver his acceptance speech to be the Presidential candidate of a major political party is giving me goosebumps and making me a bit teary eyed.
Poetical and beautiful.
And full of hope.
God bless America.

I just love History! Especially when I get the witness the good history!
I started bawling as soon as Obama walked out onstage!
