It seems like forever ago, in May 2011, President Obama and the First Lady traveled abroad to Ireland for an Official State visit combined with a trip to his ancestral home in Moneygall, Ireland. This compilation video below is worth the watch to recall how truly beloved he was across the ocean.
Tens of thousands of Irish people lined up to see him, to be inspired by his words and his message of unity, compassion, and working together to make the world a better place.
I am sharing this video as a pick me up, to remind myself (and anyone who sees it) that we had a beloved President and even in these dark times, I know that we will again.
This video is so deeply inspiring to me that I had to share it. I hope we can all drink it in for a moment and find that spirit and that which truly makes America so great that the rest of the world can see it.
Yes, We Can. We will keep fighting against the insanity of the current, corrupt treasonous occupant of the White House and his GOP cult-like enablers. But for a moment in time, take a step back to enjoy how beloved, kind, decent and good our last President was and still is.
PS — If you are so inclined, www.theobamadiary.com is a great source of Obama inspiration and is worth checking out.
Fired up and ready to go.
