2. So pleasant to see our former President who is so intelligent, well spoken,...

.... has such a delightful demeanor, and is thoughtful in what he says.

Thank you for posting this. It reminds us that America was not always led by a egotistical and maniacal monster. That there are very good people among us too. How refreshing to see and be reminded of such by this wonderful man.

BUCKET LIST,..

The idea of the bucket list — the experiences we want to have before we "kick the bucket" — has captured our collective imagination for years.
It might seem a bit sad to think about, but we all dream of things we want to do before our time is up. It isn't always about "before we die," but it creates a sense of urgency.

Creating and updating a bucket list of ideas for what you hope to see or do keeps us in touch with what we find moving and inspiring. The list keeps us dreaming, motivated, and working hard. It helps us stay excited about life and connected with what might fulfill our sense of purpose.

Bucket list ideas can be as grand or as simple as you like. But they should align with who you are and what you care about. They’re rooted in your interests, purpose, and passions — the things that get you up in the morning.

6. So DELIGHTFUL and APPRECIATED!

Thank you, Rhiannon! Boy, I really MISS that guy. (And soon I'll be missing Colbert as well.) I'll bet Trump is frothing at the mouth over this SINCERE, not coached or paid for, lovefest.

7. I know! Just hearing him speak, his intelligence and humor reminds us all of what it was like to have a real president

Who actually worked for the American people! And I miss him too now more than ever. And I'll sure miss Colbert, too! I think I've been posting his monologue and opening since 2017. He's my favorite too with his intelligence and humor. No matter what the day has been like under the felon-in-chief, Colbert's humor made it bearable. *sigh*
