Brad and I had the opportunity to watch President Obama's speech, addressed to the Mulsim world, at the U.S. Ambassador's residence. We were in the company of Diplomats and Ambassadors from all around the region. It was amazing to watch and listen to our President speak so confidently and sincerely about his desires to focus more on what we have in common than on our differences. It is a great lesson I've gained from this experience of living in Abu Dhabi. All of human-kind is really more alike than they are different. The speech was very well received. Many Diplomats spoke following the broadcast of the importance to get behind President Obama. To trust him and to take this opportunity they have waited so long for to create a healthy relationship of trust among strong religious countries and individuals.
If you didn't hear the speech, it's worth listening.
