Captivating and Uplifting

Amanda captures you from the beginning and takes you on a wonderful journey of hope for the future and a dream of unity. I am Canadian but she made me feel like I was a part of something more than just our boarders. I feel peace and unity. Amazing. Captivating and truly uplifting. A must hear for daily inspiration.

Celebratory

Listening to it cold, almost 2 and half years after the inaugeration of the US President it still lifts, but failed to quite hit the feelings for me that it did then. However, the hope this poem embues stil hold strong and clear.

Amazing to think the author was only 21 when she confidently delivered this poem to the world.
