2008 has been one hell of a year, has it not? For some of you, 2008 was a good year as far as family, finances, and health is concerned. For many of you, 2008 sucked as far as family, finances, and health is concerned.
I fall into the latter group. You and I have had our share of shit in this year, which is only a few more hours away from becoming history, thank God!
You know what's really cool? Only 19 more days until Republican criminal George Bush leaves office! That makes the new year better already!
2009 is upon you, and so are the ingredients to make the new year a better one than the one that we leave behind. Many people are expecting our President-elect Obama to fix many of their problems so far as America in general is concerned. That he may be able to do.
But keep in mind something else that he once said to you and I. I have to paraphrase because I'm not sure of his exact words. You'll remember then though.
He said something like: We are the change we have been waiting for.
Only you can make real change in your lives in 2009.
Be safe tonight people. If you're going out to ring in the New Year and you're drinking, let someone sober drive. We'll see you next year!
