Happy New Year Happy New President!!!!!
I have been sitting in silence and meditating pouring out the old thoughts from last year. It's been an eventful year full of life and change. The old saying is still appropriate "If you have nothing nice to say......" you know the rest. As we say nanana na na na na GOOD-BYE.............. to the BUSH REGIME......I sit in peace and harmony! As an educator I have HOPE for the future generations who can believe in change. Tiny hands that create can now hopefully use all the colors in the box. Only 60 years ago the world was a much different place.
His speech this morning monumental and poetic. The beautiful poem by poet Elizabeth Alexander mentioning sewing and mending "that which needs to be mended." As I look ahead to the year there are many things that need to be mended in my life.
When I glance the gorgeous Jackie O look Mrs O wore a golden ensemble to the inauguration. Designed by Isabel Toledo a veteran of the fashion industry. Symbolic choice of color, texture and cut were carefully chosen for this special day. Many special women also apart of this day. Aretha Franklin, Hilary Clinton, and so many unmentioned strong amazing women can also look to a more promising future. To the future, let there be color, let there be light, let there be the brightest days to come!
