"FIND THE GOOD AND PRAISE IT".

From the NYTs
I am a Pollyanna...I have said it before and I will say it again. It surprises me when things go wrong and many times I don't realize that things have gone wrong until a day or two later. When I heard this Alex Haley quote today during President Obamas inauguration, I could only applaud. "Find the good and praise it" is a thought worth saving not only in a plaque on the wall but in our hearts. I can only wish that when Republican Senator Lamar Alexander said this, he was giving us a glimmer of a new attitude that will carry us forward in the next 4 years.

I am celebrating tonight by watching the balls and watching our beautiful first lady in all her beauty.  We are a very lucky country.
