SwedeLady's Random Keepers

I thrive on random items that once connected bring depth. I have so many thoughts that I put them here to either organize them or just get them out of my head for a bit. I enjoy finding items on the Internet and often like to share. I like knowing a little bit about many things.

Yes We Can


"We know the battle ahead will be long, but always remember that no matter what obstacles stand in our way, nothing can withstand the power of millions of voices calling for change.

We have been told we cannot do this by a chorus of cynics who will only grow louder and more dissonant in the weeks to come. We've been asked to pause for a reality check. We've been warned against offering the people of this nation false hope.

But in the unlikely story that is America, there has never been anything false about hope. For when we have faced down impossible odds; when we've been told that we're not ready, or that we shouldn't try, or that we can't, generations of Americans have responded with a simple creed that sums up the spirit of a people.

Yes we can."

President Barack Hussein Obama

  • About
      I think of myself as an eclectic mix of life trying to balance all forces within my soul. If you were to see my treasured possessions you would better understand me. I also enjoy soup, midnight drives, and vanilla Coca Cola.
