Complacently hopeful

I've not felt compelled to blog. I felt no particular elation or relief inauguration day, just a simple sense of hope and a fair amount of resolve. What I can do best for my country is parent my son effectively, do my job faithfully, and save money. I plan on planting a garden for the first time in my life. Anything I have to say in a blog is likely being said better by another. I do enjoy the process of writing, and will occasionally post here, like once or twice a week, I intend to put my writing energy into songs, and correspondence. I have this notion of randomly selecting somebody in each of the 50 states, and hand writing a letter addressed to them asking for their participation in addressing the problems of our nation. I've got the concept, but the letter's not drafted. My basic goal is to advance hope in the notion that we can make this a better country. Now that I've stated this goal here, I will be more motivated to draft the letter. What is it I want to say? Once I decide that, the rest will be work, but it will be easy.
