Once, when I was a little girl, I asked my mother if it was alright to pray for someone to die. My mother, of course, was horrified, because I was like, six or seven, and clearly the Bad Seed. She asked what I meant. I clarified that I wanted to know if it was bad to want Castro to die. My mother told me on no uncertain terms that it was absolutely not alright to pray for something like that.

Castro has given up power, for real this time. And even though I know things aren't over- and are probably far from it- I couldn't help but get an actual physical thrill at the announcement.
