Last night, i have never seen another woman look more stunning & beautiful, more graceful and elegant, and yet still as strong as it gets, as i did watching the few shots showed of Sarah Palin last night.
She is to me, intelligent, beautiful, completely stunning in her sensual elegance as a woman, and carries herself in a manner that she knows all of these things about herself.
I truly fell in love with her for the first time, last night, seeing her on that stage in defeat, but with a look of such beauty, and womanly strength mixed with what i can only describe in my perception as complete graciousness and humility, that sparkled in her in her eyes unlike anything i have even seen before.
As a woman, trans or not, i must confess, no matter what anyone thinks of her politics or her theology, she has carried herself with utter distincttion in what is the most trying and difficult of political processes in this nation.
She rose and wore well a place of great respect in her party and in the world, and i literally cried in deep real heartbreaking sadness for several minutes last night, wishing in all of my heart that i had voted for her, and for the feeling of betraying such a woman to not give her this chance of a lifetime.
A woman that, to me, in so many ways, engenders the ultimate expressions of female beauty, strength, sensuality, intelligence, motherhood, and genuine love for her country and her family.
Say what you will - what possibilities could've held for her, and for all of us, in her living the challenges of such an office.
I wanted to tell her all of these things, and hope i will get the chance someday.
As this is the best i can do at the moment, so be it.
Whether male, female, trans, gay straight, other, white black, or any other color or culture that exists, i am still an American - we ALL are, regardless of the differences, and i love my country - very, very much.
I like very much and deeply respect John McCain - his warmth, his humor, his charisma and intelligence, and his unrelenting and empassioned commitment of service to the country he loves and belives in, for most all of his life now.
I hope people can feel the value of the lessons that such a great servant can give to all of us, and hear his words of solidarity and fellowship amongst ourselves and one another, no matter the issue.
What a truly interesting and miraculous time in all of our lives. May God bless them all - may God bless us all as their fellow Americans, no matter which side of the aisle we are all standing.
With great sadness, wonder, a sense of real regret for not seeing the real grace of such a woman, another incredible woman - not being able to actualize such a chance.
I will ask the Lord my God, and her spirit, such as it is, for all the understanding that there is, and hope we can all prevail, in every way possible, to actually live closer to our highest ideals and come together more now as a people, and simply as human beings, than ever before.
Within ourselves, and to and for one another, all of us fellow citizens in the greatest country in all the world, in such difficult times of incredibly momentous change for all of us.
Great love, may peace and well- being grace our lives and our hopes and for the good of all our children, as yet to come.
Congratulations to President-Elect Obama, and all of his family, and for the example of real potential greatness, and the possiblility that his incredible victory has shown us all still may yet exist in this country.
My he keep himself and hs service well and in good order, and with real integrity, as the highest servant of the people's will in this country.
Sincerely and respectfully,
LoveForever,
Maryanne
