The State of the Union

While our President spoke of the shootings in Arizona, the camera panned over to the family who lost their young daughter, Christina. The camera caught the little girl's brother comforting his parents as they choked on the pain of the Presidents reference and the terrible loss they must be feeling. Such a strong young man.

I was really moved by this moment and I thought I would share it with you.

I really enjoyed the speech. If all of those dreams and hopes and intentions can come to life, I believe we will have an America we can be truly proud of. Not to say I'm not proud now, but I really liked the ideas he spoke about. I also loved the idea of mixed seating arrangements. All of the fuss that was going on around it really made our politicians a little more human and gave a light hearted feeling to the event as opposed to drawing lines and creating a hard line between left and right.
