A whole new world (just like the Aladdin song)

So, I'll try not to write too much, but I can't help but be excited about a recent event which can be summed up in two words: President Obama!!! YEAH!!!!! As I listened to his speech at the inauguration, I pin pointed what it was that felt so good--his message of hope! Finally, there is a president who isn't trying to run the country based on fear, which goes along with one of my favorite scriptures in 1 Timothy that talks about fear not coming from God. I know there are threats to our country and I acknowledge that things are hard, I'm not completely living in a rose colored glasses world. However, how inspiring, refreshing and down right overdue are we for a glimmer of hope! I guess I typed a lot more than I planned and I'm sorry because I'm sure there are plenty of people who are on the other end of the spectrum on this and that's fine, I love you all, but I just had to write a little something about the way this has set a groovy kinda loving feeling for me. And I can't help but put this picture in that my dear friend Kelerie emailed me. I love how this is such a sibling thing- to block the camera when your sis is taking a pic! Ciao
