for his inauguration in 2009. i know he is not the same man he was on that day ~ and yet, he remains rooted in love, respect of others, fairness, justice - and an ideal which has cost him more than many will never appreciate due to their own hate, bigotry, racism, and greed: compromise.

nothing but respect for my president and my first lady who have endured much hatred and dissing, and yet, continue to let their light shine.

a huge bog for you, too, she!
