What is required of us now is a new era of responsibility - a recognition, on the part of every American, that we have duties to ourselves, our nation, and the world, duties that we do not grudgingly accept but rather seize gladly, firm in the knowledge that there is nothing so satisfying to the spirit, so defining of our character, than giving our all to a difficult task.
From President Obama’s Inauguration Address.
I’m still amazed that I’m typing those words, inspired to seize gladly the responsibility for my life, and the lives of those around me, whom I care about, whom I love, and even those who I don’t yet know, but need the help.
