A Collective Sigh of Relief

It seems like forever since I’ve felt patriotic, or indeed this relieved.  I think many of us forgot to breathe for four long dismal years, most notably this last one.  Big breath of fresh air.

It’s hard to believe we have a legit president and VP again, who literally began getting to work undoing the damage, however symbolically, immediately after the inauguration ceremony.  It was refreshing to see actual civility and respectful behavior between attendees from opposing sides.  At least they showed up, unlike some.  Just having actual grownups in charge will be a huge improvement.

I’m thankful I lived to see this moment, and feel some hope again.  We have so much lost ground to recover on every front, but I believe Pres. Biden/V.P. Harris are determined to return us to a civilized state and membership in the world.  We need all the help and hope we can get.
