when Michelle said Barack has “stubborn optimism” I realized I also really want that in a partner. Somebody who isn’t moved by life’s shortcomings but ALWAYS sees the light at the end of the tunnel. That’s a true leader, not just of a country but a household. what a legacy.
Idk but Michelle Obama telling Barack “You told me all those years ago that you couldn't promise me the world, but you could promise me an interesting life. And, of course you outdid yourself and managed to give me both." is the most beautiful thing I’ve ever heard someone say to another 🥹
Obama teared up during Michelle Obama's speech at Obama Presidential Center:
“You told me all those years ago that you couldn't promise me the world, but you could promise me an interesting life, & of course you outdid yourself & managed to give me both.”
