Alex, this was a lovley and inspiration post (as always!). I really appreciate your insight on change and involvement and couldn’t agree with you more. Thank you for sharing and I look forward to what is to come in 2009! Wishing you well!

Wow – that’s all I can say about everyone’s comments and notes. I really appreciate everything everyone’s said and the continuous feedback and the continuous desire to do better. Makes me so hopeful.

And with that, Rebecca I’d offer that for some, they feel Obama is “something the can be proud of” I think because he brings the idea of change and the idea of involvement. I think even if you disagree with his politics or didn’t vote for him, if the majority of the people seem excited, hopeful and involved for the first time in many, many, years, that’s something to be proud of in a President. It’s up to him now to follow through and continue a sense of pride to people and people who didn’t vote for him just as it’s up to those of us who were inspired to follow-through in our own life.

Sometimes people are a catalyst for ideas and change that spur a great many people on to doing bigger and better things. And sometimes that’s enough.

I’m not saying that’s enough for Obama but I sure welcome having the majority of people excited about working together in the same country and moving forward than the majority of people feeling angry, stuck and hopeless.

I couldn’t vote because I’m not American and I’m not loyal to either the Democratic or Republican Party. I’m loyal to change, action, and people working together. And in the 10 years that I’ve been in America, this is the first time I’ve seen that. So regardless of past politics, I’m loving the hope of the direction of the new politics.

While a new year always brings hope for the better, I am totally baffled by people saying things like “now we have a president we can be proud of.” Why? He did almost nothing as a freshman Illinois Senator, has not sponsored a single bill, etc. In fact, when questioned, none of his supporters could come up with one thing he has done! I do not put any faith in him for a better 2009, but certainly do hope that people evaluate their own lives and how they can personally improve themselves and the world. I enjoy your site!
