"A new sun rose today, so was the air all new.
An old dream came true today, but the faith was all new.
Free to see new dreams today, so free to do all new.
Feeling to start afresh today, my strength is all new." -Dipti
"...the dream that once echoed across the history, from the steps of
the Lincoln Memorial has finally reached walls of the White House...", how appropriately expressed by the Senator Diane Feinstein. Today was the Inaugural of the 44th President of the USA, Mr. Barack Obama, and the first African-American to be so. His journey from the son of a white mom and black dad to the White House was next to impossible and only he fought against all odds to make it a new history and a new beginning.
Maybe this day, which is called a history in the making, means not much to me but the tears in the eyes of millions, when Mr. Obama spoke, were telling the tales of the ancestors of many who were once slaves. This day was something like the freedom that a country gets after a long non violent fight. Just witnessing this function, not being a part of it in any sense, overwhelms you. So his win was a sign of the defeat of racialism, if not in streets but in the White House. A man just from the streets, so strong of will and determination that he has conquered the world (in a sense).............Then what is impossible? Nothing or maybe something still is.
Terrorism, a blood cancer which cannot be treated with blood transfusion, only when the body dies it goes. Some mere psychos, who in the name of Islam, are killing people and tarnishing the name of their own God, Allah. Jihadists who have ruined the name of Muslims and the meaning of the word 'Jihad' are the biggest threat to the whole world today; they are eating the peace of the world like termites. Growing in certain nations and being backed by some mean politicians they are spreading fast. If not controlled soon, they will be the reason of the next and the last World war and hence the end of the world. Where the whole world is seeing building of a new hope in today's ceremony, the Jihadists are busy planning destruction of hopes, homes and harmony in the countries of others and their own. Getting rid of these psychopaths I feel is impossible.
Now let us see what Mr. Barack Obama will do towards the weakening economy and the growing terrorism, both equally major challenges.
Best of luck .

I wrote this immediately after the inauguration ceremony of the President, I felt so positive for so many things at that moment but now after his policies about outsourcing I am not feeling that good about him. Will write reasons some other time, not in a mood now.
