	<description>The metro columnist writes about local people whose circumstances reflect decisions made as near as City Hall or as far away as the halls of Congress. Other times, she weighs in on a topic because it is incredibly ridiculous. Or heartening. Or fascinating.</description>

		<description>Shanna,

Thank you for this up-close glimpse, especially the feelings of Brenda Keeling -- then and now -- from the dream of Martin Luther King to the presidency of Barack H. Obama. The TV cameras showed the excitement, but this brings it home and makes it real.

Dreams do come true. Let freedom ring!

PS: I'll never be able to think of this election process and this year without thinking of you and our wonderful community of bloggers. The memories are good.</description>
