Word of the Day: Hope

As I watched the inauguration today, I was hopeful for my country. I am hopeful for the spirit that is inspiring many, many people to believe that we (each one of us) can make a difference in our communities, in our country, in the world.

I am hopeful that we can be encouraged by our new leader, but not expect him to take on all the responsibility. I am hopeful that we can take our eyes off of him and what he can or can’t do for us, and turn them to the issues at hand.

No matter what happens in the next four years, my dearest hope is that we continue to believe that change can happen.

Let’s get to work!
