Obama`s America then, now and later

America`s 44th President has set a high standard for future candidates, including Donald Trump. Obama`s attitude, speeches, dedication and way of thinking inspired many during his eight years of presidency. He did way more than that. Although some achievements are yet to come to fruition, he will be remembered as someone who brought change.

His path hasn`t been easy. When he first appeared in front of his audience, he had to convince them that he was capable of leading. Not only did he come from a `broken` family, but he was the first Afro-American to become president.

Then he got a `broken` country, one that he tried hard to fix. Some say that he succeeded, while others disagree. During his time, unemployment issues improved, more people acquired housing, and people were reported to be less stressful. A lot of them still believe in his legacy and he certainly gained himself some respect.

Although, like any other time, opposition rarely admits that respect, let alone admiration. His politics and decisions will be challenged long after he resigned. In some way, this also makes his `work` immortal, as his ideas will be remembered.

One thing is clear: till the last moment of his presidency, he had the nation`s best interest in mind.

“At my core I think we’re going to be OK. We just have to fight for it, work for it and not take it for granted.”

Wise words from a wise president. Let`s draw some cards to see what`s next for Barack Obama now, that he is `off duty`.

Psychic Timea`s Verdict:

Page of Pentacles:
This is the perfect time for new hobbies, and even a new job. You have the time and opportunity to fulfil old dreams, act on desires. Nothing is stopping you now from leading a life you deserve, one that you have always wanted. This is a card of new beginnings. Although success isn`t guaranteed yet, you need to start trying.

Ace of Swords (Reversed):
It`s all nicely said, but your first task will be finding those goals. Something has ended, which was a huge part of your life. Now, the question is there: what`s next? If you have too many ideas, try to look deep within and find out the truth. What is it that you really want?

Four of Cups:
Try not to be open to new opportunities. Not having to do anything can easily result in your life becoming dull, losing its meaning. Stay focused on finding out who you are when you are not the President of the United States. You looked after many for eight years, now it`s time to look after yourself. Take your own advice and “fight for it, work for it and not take it for granted.”
