		<description><![CDATA[Everyone is volunteering to help flood victims. Distributing water. Donating clothing. Donating money. Helping people rip out things from their flooded homes. Opening homes to strangers in need of a place to stay&#8230;

		<description><![CDATA[I last wrote in this blog right after the inauguration, when the country&#8217;s optimism was high and hope was the feeling in the air.
