Let’s embrace transitions

I am thinking about transitions from one way of living personally and our presidential administration transition and the dangers with both personal and governmental transition and hopefully making wise choices coping with change.

My transition from a happy married man to being a single person, I found myself in a strange world. I believe I have made mostly good choices so far, however I could have made some very stupid ones because of being human. One of the things I believe held me to a realm of reason was my love and respect for my wife Rosemary.

To get to my point of transitions from one president and administration to another, I believe many are forgetting the love of our nation. I believe we should be thinking of loving America and the world, yet I see many showing little respect for the last eight years administration as well as for the incoming administration.

Abe Lincoln said it well, “United we stand, divided we fall.”

It is said, Russia swayed our election outcome. I don’t think so, but they and others are most certainly dividing us.
