So many emotions

Surfing the blogosphere two posts in particular touched me. The first, from Melissa at Shakesville, made me smile (GO INDIANA, my home state, for going BLUE); and the second, from Tengrain at Mock, Paper, Scissors, caused me to shed a tear. It's been a day full of emotions.

Introducing...

President-Elect Barack Obama

How sad that she will not see her grandson elected…

A tear runs down the face of U.S. Democratic presidential nominee Senator Barack Obama (D-IL) as he speaks about his grandmother who died earlier on Monday, during a campaign rally in Charlotte, North Carolina November 3, 2008. On the eve of Tuesday’s U.S. presidential election, Obama’s grandmother Madelyn Dunham died after a battle with cancer.

It is a day of mixed emotions- more happy than sad, but still.

Sad about Madelyn Dunham's passing and also very upsetting about Prop 8 and prop 2.

I was so happy to see Indiana go blue for a change. The emotions are definitely mixed, but I am so glad to have a sense of the positive again.
