Are We Fools to Believe?

"Change has come to America" - Barack Obama, USA's 44th President

The power of change will be demonstrated to its full extent in the US with Obama's victory.

An excerpt from MSNBC:

Ellora Lyons, 81, of Peoria, Ill., recalled boarding a train to
Oklahoma with her two oldest boys in 1948. Her brother had been killed in an
accident, and they were going to his funeral.“There was a sign on this train
that said, 'n-----s to the back,’” she said. “And we couldn’t drink out of the
same water fountain.”


“I remember my mom and my dad talking about black folks
being not able to vote,” Lyons said. “I never thought that I would see a black
man [in the White House], but I was hoping that one day that a black man would
run for president."

Some people have waited a lifetime to witness this moment. I'm willing to wait my lifetime to see a similar change in Malaysia. For that to happen, we must collectively believe in this possibility and gain the maturity and courage demonstrated by the people of the US.

I still BELIEVE that it is POSSIBLE, that the impossible dream will be a dream for all, that change will come to Malaysia, that the Malaysian race will be the one race for all Malaysians.

After all, the only constant in life is change.
