A thought for this inauguration day — Have you ever studied Abraham Lincoln’s pose at the Lincoln Memorial? Specifically, notice his hands. His left hand is a tightly clinched fist, while the right hand is resting relaxed on the chair arm. This suggests there are two equal components of American leadership — strength and compassion.
I didn’t realize this myself until I read about it in the Parade Sunday newspaper supplement of Jan 15, 2017.
Have a nice day!
By the way, the National Park Service has a website about the Lincoln Memorial at https://www.nps.gov/Linc/index.htm . This photo came from Google Images.
