The Time Is Now

We are now living a time of great change. A time when what was can no longer be. A time when the strength that has been implanted in our hearts, by the work of our ancestors must ring free. A time when the thoughts of fear must be crushed by the thoughts of possibilities that now have no choice but to become reality. It is crucial to our existence as people of dignity and justice to work towards the forgotten dreams of our youth. Dreams that we once held dearly and have been blurred by time. We cannot put all of our faith in one man and walk down the road of success. We must put much of that faith in ourselves and each other.

Believe that we as a people can be what needs to be. That we can uplift ourselves to hire plateaus than the ones dreamt of by those before us and by ourselves. That we can lend not one but both hands. So that one can heal wounds with one as the other guides our brothers and sisters to safety. All while our feet remain firm in our pursuit of greatness.

We now more then ever in the history of human existence must remain united. United so that we can fulfill the inevitable good that has been destined from the moment love came to be. United because the annals of history have clearly stated that separation goes hand and hand with failure. Believe no longer that the sole care of self leads to greatness. For it is the love of self, while embracing the necessity of unity and diversity that makes a man or woman great.

Do not forget the greatness that lies within us all. And be sure to imagine and make true what can be if our souls, love and existence pursue what our minds have for too long merely thought of and feared.
For all that know me and for those that do not… I embrace you with these words.


Peace, Paz, Salaam,
Latin
May God Bless us all.

P.S. Big Up To President Barack H. Obama. You have accomplished a dream of many. Those dreams now lay in both yours and our hands. Lead us well.
