Every four years, we inaugurate a President in the U.S.A. It is either an initial inauguration or  a reinauguration, one term at a time, two terms maximum.

That is it.

We get what we collectively ask for and must live with it. One might also say that we get what we collectively deserve whether we understand all that it means or not.

It happened today as it did four years ago and will again four years from now.

Some of us are please. Some of us are not. All of us are in the same boat with the leadership we elected.

If you pray, as I do, pray that whoever it is will make the right choices in the middle of crisis.

I would pray for more. I might pray for more. I want to pray for more, but I fear that I am not that great a prayer warrior.

Nevertheless, I might try.

In the words of one of America's greatest geniuses, Forest Gump, "That's all I have to say about that."

But I will be on my toes and I will be wagging my tongue and exercising my typing fingers because we do not get to sit back and let others make all the decisions between elections and inaugurations. We must be citizens and vigilant observers at all times.

It is Wednesday in America.
