Wow, Roma...those are all great! Especially moving away from organized religion and toward spirituality. I agree with you there, completely.

Advances in the cure for several diseases, such as cancer, AIDS, neurological diseases etc.

A widespread awareness about keeping everything green and trying to be better citizens of our planet.

An existence where racism is only a distant memory in our history books.

I'm optimistic about race relations improving, too, Shannon. I had forgotten about that.

I am hopeful that we, as a country, will have more forthright discussions about the past/present/future relationship between Caucasians and Native Americans, Blacks, Latinos (and everything in between) instead of just hoping that we don't have to discuss racism because we elected a biracial president.

Now seems like the perfect time to move forward on race relations.
