Diary 283

Saturday, December 26th

Boxing Day (today), was spent tidying up, browsing on leftovers, and reading my Christmas presents – in this case Barack Obama’s “A Promised Land”.  Not ‘THE promised land’ notice, something that’s given us, because it’s up to us to fulfill the promise this land, our land, holds. Brilliant, intimate, and exactly what we need after the previous four nightmare years.  Here’s a book that reminds us that it’s perfectly natural to have a vision for a better United States, and why we need to make that happen. It is the perfect way to inspire us all, weary as we may feel.

I always seem to get exactly what I want and need for Christmas (Thank you, family, thank you.)
