Hey, I see you there feeling sorry for yourself. Me too, if I'm honest. Sitting here with my problems spread out on the kitchen table like yesterday's mail. But let me tell you something that might help put things in perspective.

Right now, Biden's walking through the White House, getting ready to welcome Trump through those big doors. Think about that for a minute. Whatever's got us down today probably doesn't hold a candle to that particular challenge.

For four years, he's been doing the hard work of putting things back together, whether people bothered to notice or not. Like fixing a broken fence while the neighbors complain about the hammering. And every morning, he and Harris show up, roll up their sleeves, and get to work for us anyway.

So maybe next time we're tempted to throw ourselves a pity party, we might remember that. If they can face their daily stack of troubles without flinching, we can probably handle whatever's on our plate today.

Time to get up from the table. The coffee's getting cold anyway.
