Hello Friends, I hope you are all doing well. I am very very proud of our country. Yesterday our first African American president was sworn into office. I honestly never thought that I would live to see that day. Thank you America for tearing down the racial barriers of this country. 50 years ago we going through civil rights and many many leaders rose up and stood their ground about the injustices being done. Many many people shed there blood just trying to get the right to vote, to get the same rights as everyone else and to just live a normal life and look at us now. WOW I am am honored to have witnessed history unfold. I did not vote for Barack Obama (because I don't agree with him on key issues), but I do believe that the Lord has a plan for our nation. The Lord is still in control and I know he is proud of how far our country has come.
As president Bush gets back to "normal" life in Texas, I wonder what his reflection is about these last 8 years. I am proud of Bush and all he did. I may not agree with it all, but I don't know the whole story and I am not going to pretend I do. I am torn that our nation is at war and we have lost and will continue to loose innocent people, but at the same time our country is better off because of the fight this brave souls. So thank you president Bush for doing what you thought was best for our country. President Bush took care of Veterans and military personnel. Every January we get a pay raise. Not little one, but usually around $50-100 a year. He made sure that they were not forgotten. He truly has a heart for this nation and tried to do his best with what he had. My dear friend Ann had this video posted on here facebook account and I thought it was awesome. So I will leave you with that. Thank you America, what a ride you have been on. May the next 4 years be AWESOME!
