3 Days to President Obama's Inauguration!

3 days and counting to perhaps the most pivotal political day in the history of the world! It feels like Christmas again - only better! The world is in for a change for the better - I can't wait!

President Obama has his work cut out for him, but I'm confident he's got the intelligence and the power to turn this challenging economical time upside down. I'm very worried for the workers in Welland where John Deere will be closed next year. Some have walked away from their houses already and I'm not sure if I'll be able to keep my house or even my car! We need to learn to help everybody who needs it regardless of where they live. I'm glad the haves will have a taste of being have-nots for no other reason but to spur empathy for those who never had.

Well, I'm very optimistic and excited about our future as change is good. We certainly are taking this time to stop and see where we are and where we're going as a 'post-modern' society. I think this economic failing is really the burning and crashing of the Phoenix of greed from which something absolutely grand and green will materialise! I believe it is. And I believe in politics for the first time ever. I'm a Canadian who believes in Obama!

If this is a collective dream we're all having - please don't wake me up!
