I have never had tears of joys upon hearing upon any persons death. I can actually say that never have I experienced any pleasure at the death of another. I can no longer say that. Upon waking up and being informed by my mom that Bin Ladin was finally assassinated by Navy SEALS, joy welled up within me as I hugged her and tears came to my eyes.
I will never forget this day. I am so very proud of my country, very proud of the troops who serve and risk their lives to protect this country, proud of my president, proud of former President Bush... let's face it, I'm bursting with pride.
All these emotions due to the death of a man, caused directly by my country. Indeed, a historical day and one which will hopefully turn the tide back towards peace.
Hope for a new day... pride in who we fundamentally are...
I hope this feeling lasts.
