The Burden of Expectation



What a wonderful picture. Full of hope, excitement and expectation.

It's been a long time comin' but I know change is gonna come.

The burden of expectation can crush anyone. The election and today the inauguration of Barack Obama have been built up to an unprecidented level. How can a young man (I think 48 is still to be considered young!) bear such a burden of expecation. There is so much to do, what to do first? There have been so many speeches filled with hope and the promise of change, how to make good all the promises made and expectations raised?

I hope he finds a way, let's pray together for that.
