I'm not a football fan. But I am from Maryland and the
Ravens did just win the Superbowl. For the most part I don't care about the
game but I am awfully proud of the playesr and proud to be a Marylander right
now. There is something about a group of people coming together to celebrate a
common goal that is so invigorating. That hometown pride that right now is
filling most Maryland homes is incredible. People who are Ravens fans and
people who aren't, all coming together to say that their team won. It's not often
that it happens, but it's magical when it does. To know that an entire state
has come together to support a small group of people. Pride is something that
so many people fear to lose, including myself. To have pride in oneself is so
important. In times like these when my pride is wavering, it's so nice to be
able to have pride in something else. It lifts us up on a cloud where there is
less hatred in our world. For a little while, we are the champions. We have
hometown pride. We can conquer anything.
Stay Strong
