I am Goddess

.. Like Father time himself, I have the ability to stop time!

Yet I am no God. I am Goddess.

I can record random moments in history, but I am not a Historian!

I can vividly remind one of their past, and document their present, which rapidly becomes their past, for preservation of their future, yet I am not a fortune teller!

I am called upon to capture precious moments, but I am not the leader of any armies.

With this great power, I am merely equipped with my hands and my eyes!

Through the aid of light, am I allowed to captivate beauty, yet I cannot be compared to the sun!

I contain the art of manipulating time, for time is truly of the essence...

And that essence is our fruitful nature, that fruitful nature is as we know it, called Life!

I simply take seconds of life into the palm of my hands and freeze it....

And without our future, we will cease to exists!

History Making?

It's 9:21 pm as I sit in front of my laptop writing this.  It has dawned on me that we are currently experiencing a serious historical event.  The best part is, I get to actually witness it vs. reading about it in some history book.  History has always been one of my favorite subjects, and if it wasn't for my passion for writing and public relations, I would have majored in History. 

Learning about how things came to be in the current times amuses me so much.  Reading about explorers and their voyages, the Ancient Mayans and the Aztecs, to King Henry VIII beats watching any series on the television. Barack Obama's promises, to me, are so positive, that in a way it's scary. I myself would like nothing better than to see Obama win the presidency, yet there is a huge feeling that it won't happen.  And if it does, it's sad to say that he might be assassinated.  It's really a terrible thing to say, I know, but how can you ignore all the facts that history have taught us thus far? 

I am not trying to label this so much of a Black & White issue, since Kennedy was assassinated and he was Caucasian, however, I truly feel in my heart that anyone person, male or female, that actually intend to help the People, risk being put down.  Obama is planning to revamp Health Care - (which I couldn't understand how Canadians could do it but America can't) - and who stands to lose if this happens?  Of course the rich Republicans...remember "There is no profit in the cure, only the treatment"!  These are the same individuals that took the polls and places Bush into office, the same ones that gouged the gas prices (anyone wonders how the price dropped so drastically in a matter of weeks, when the demand for oil hasn't decreased)?

I just wish that we can all open our eyes and start to question the crap we are being fed and actually stand up for ourselves.  These people (don't get me wrong, not just Republicans are the financial rapist) are rich off of our hard earned sweat and blood.  I know it's childlike to want a peaceful and harmonious world, and I know that Obama can't literally give it to us, but I believe that he will open our eyes to how limitless our possibilities truly are.  He is our living proof that we can achieve anything if we unite as one people.  The world is so colorful and that is what makes it beautiful.  As a product of a mixed-race heritage, I understand the turmoil and conflict attached.  You can never actually claim one side or the other, and the choice isn't made for you if you can't actually fit into either class due to skin complexion, hair, features, etc...but I've grown to embrace my heritage.  I see beauty in my features, in my hair, and my complexion.  I see art within my creation and I wouldn't have it any other way. 

So I thank God for allowing me to witness this historical day!  I can proudly proclaim "I was there".  I saw an honest man ignore what society taught to be limiting, and spin it into such colorful hope for America.  I see a man who is attempting to heal her wounds (post 9/11) and nurse her back to her once prosperous and vibrate self!
