What's up wonderful, amazing, sweet and lovely people. How are you all doing today? I hope you're all having a great day and are not letting anyone steal your joy. Welcome to Maryam's Joyful Life. Today is a beautiful day. Thank you all for joining me.
Four years ago when Trump won the election, I was very sad. It was a very depressing feeling for me and it lasted for almost a month. I knew I had to get over it somehow. I shared that feeling with millions of Americans and people across the world. In the wake of Trump's leadership, a lot of negative things happened. Trump instigated racial targeting, bullying and attacks. Life in America for people of color was challenging. The very integrity of America brought to ruins until NOW!
Democracy is an act and not just a statement. Millions of people of color who didn't feel like they had power started getting inspired by those of us who have come to the realization that we have the power within us to change and transcend any circumstance. This innate power is not limited by race, social status, location and financial opportunities. The power to vote is a demonstration of this power that is within everyone including Black people.
I was so proud to see millions of black people standup and vote. It was a historic election and turnout. I am so proud of this season in America. Now here's a president -elect in Biden and a Madam vice president in Harris both of whom represent the diversity in America. This speaks inclusiveness. Harris, a daughter of immigrants and the first woman to be vice president in America. I just am so full of joy and hope right now, I can't even contain myself.
The weather was so beautiful yesterday and today it's been so amazing. It is definitely a complete 360 of emotions from that of gloom to hope. From that of sorrow to celebration. I am very happy not just for the fact that Black voters and people of color have seen the impact their voice and decision can make on a nation but that as humans, there is a wide awakening to who we truly are. We are spiritual beings having a human experience. We can be and do whatever we put our minds to. The power to transcend and change ANY circumstance or situation is always within us. We just need to remind ourselves of it more often and start operating and leading our lives more consciously.
Congratulations America, you did it!!!!
With gratitude,
Maryam
