Showing Original Post only (View all)One day--most likely sometime in the next few weeks--there will be breaking news. [View all]
We don't know what exact day that will be. Or what time of day it will be.
It could be a matter of just a few days.
It might be a matter of a few weeks.
But I don't foresee it being much longer than that.
Where will this breaking news come from?
Most likely it will be New York.
But it could be out of Georgia.
It probably won't be from Washington, DC. At least not just yet.
When the news first breaks, it will be cryptic.
Maybe we'll first hear about it from a tweet from some reputable journalist.
Or maybe you'll hear about it on a "This just in..." announcement on one of the cable news networks.
It will be hard to believe for any of us when we first hear the news. Because it will be news that we've been waiting to hear for years, only to felt let down time after time, to the point where our cynicism has told us to expect perpetual disappointment.
But as source after source confirms the news, we will come to the realization that this time, it's different.
This time, it's actually real.
No let down this time. No bitter disappointment.
Those who said they expected this news will claim a sense of victory and vindication. Those who thought we'd never hear this news will happily admit they were wrong.
All of us, however, will rejoice. Be amazed. Be astonished. Question whether they are dreaming or now. Reach to the top shelf and find that fine spirit we've been saving for this particular day.
The news will spread rapidly, like wildfire. All over this website. All over the news channels. All over social media.
It will be all-consuming. It will be all we want to talk about.
Because it's been years in the making.
And that day is coming soon. Very soon.
We don't know exactly when, but it is definitely coming.
