Good morning small world

Well, small 'cause I just said hello to Papa in the GG&J chatroom.

I'm trying to get some work done but I keep finding myself checking the news to watch some of the preparations for tomorrow's inauguration. I know it's just my perspective on the ways of the world, but for me tomorrow will offer the kind of target-rich environment that's so appealing to so many terror and hate groups, before even considering all of the 'loner' possibilities.

Of course I'm hoping that nothing bad happens tomorrow (or at least nothing that we get to see on tv), and in part I know I'm watching because this is an historic event on many levels. I don't remember ever seeing the people of this country so interested and excited by the change from one democratically-elected president to another. The idea that there could be in neighborhood of two million people there in DC for the ceremony is both very scary and a bit awe-inspiring.

Well, I only meant to say 'good morning' but I guess something inspired me. And inspiration is something we can all, always, use more of in our lives.

Wishing everyone an inspiring day, whatever it may be that inspires you.
