The Moment
Let us enjoy the moment.
Forget the divisiveness of the previous administration.
Delay, for the moment, your concerns about the obvious monstrous tasks that lie ahead.
An increased participation in the quagmire that is Afghanistan awaits.
The gradual removal of American troops from Iraq has not yet begun.
The auto industry may be forced to turn their strategies upside down to stay alive, and several may not make it.
Unemployment will probably continue to rise.
The deficit will, out of necessity, continue to balloon.
Crazy loans will cause additional home foreclosures into the foreseeable future.
The international image of the U.S. may be at an all-time low.
Will the new president be able to solve all this with the wave of his hand?
Nope.
Set the problems aside.
Let it all go for now.
Try to focus on the wonder that is January 20, 2009 in the United States of America.
A step forward no one could have predicted 100 years ago, 20 years ago, not even 2 years ago.
Regardless of how you voted, pat yourself on the back. You live in a truly great country.
And thank your lucky stars for the same.
