Please DU. Take a moment to reflect and enjoy, you are witnessing history. You are on the cusp of

a new era.

I am as nervous as the rest of you but please try to take a moment to savor this moment. It is the end of a long national nightmare and the beginning of a hopeful tomorrow. It is the beginning of a new direction and a new reputation in the world. As Michelle Obama said, tomorrow I will be proud of my country for the first time in a long time. (she didn't quite say that but you get the message)

Enjoy this moment, it is what you have. It is what you will tell your grandchildren. Don't let it be ruled by nervousness and anxiety.
