January 2009! Seems like everyone
writes or speaks of 'facing ' New Year 2009.
A year not many
are optimistic about. But I observe that many ordinary Americans are tuned to
politics nowadays as a result of the wake-up call of the last US administration. This is a good thing for the country. People's focus on economic excesses in the past century certainly contributed to the
bankruptcy of the US. Despite my hopes for optimism, I will join those many who worry about facing 2009. Indeed, we need change we
can
believe in! but then again, we can always ignore our troubles and hit the party floors, and live our lives! that is what I did! /
