Yes, we can

single rose

Okay, we can breathe
again

We can be proud to be
Americans
again

We can almost have hope
that
the world
can be turned around
before the human race destroys
itself.

Almost.

Ah, and with many "too good to be
true"
happenings:
the temptation:

go into a sleep of contentment,
now
it's going to be
"happy ever after."

With or without
this fabulous man as President
I am either awake in the moment
or
a high functioning robot
or
a low functioning
robot
With or without this
fabulous intelligent
ground breaking
politician,
and I do mean gooooood politician,
at our Presidency:
the whole system,
from education,
to finance,
to how we feed ourselves,
to living in and for our cars,
to rushing and cell phoning
and being out of
our lives
and out
of touch with nature,
most of the time,

probably
could do well to change.

if the planet is to survive.
if the insane degradation
of much of modern life
is to stop.

change
inner change
outer change.

and can we do
it
and be present
at the same time

we'll see

and now's
always the greatest
sweetest
surest
time to being
experiencing
the present
of the present

This choice
is there
here
now.

Good.
