Hey, guys, guess what. Today is George Washington’s 278th birthday. He was a great man and exceptional leader. The first president of our country–and no one else, in my opinion, has even come close to being as terrific as he.
Yes, I get a little geeked out about G. W. It also doesn’t hurt that he has a terrific home.
If you have no idea why I like this man so much, do yourself a favor and hit up your local library soon.
Anyway, here’s to you, George. It’s been all downhill ever since.
A Moment Worth Living 
I love this post! And I couldn’t agree more. 🙂

George no doubt had an ego and he was probably very aware of his place in history as the first president of a country that successfully broke away from England. And yet history doesn’t show any evidence that he made political decisions for his own self-interest as I think it’s already clear many politicians do today. I guess because in George’s mind his self -interest was to have a free country!
