and it's Monday again...

garden altar
After last night's breaking news, I'm feeling very conflicted.  I remember very clearly that day in 2001 and the sadness and grief I felt that day for our world.  I feel that same grief today.  Last night, seeing the celebration going on, felt very confusing.  It is sad that we live in a world where we seek death and rejoice in it.  Please don't misunderstand.  The atrocities that man has committed are unforgivable.  All the hate in the world weighs heavy on my soul.  I disagree with the celebration for another reason; the war is not over.  One player is gone.  We still live in a world at war.

My prayer for this world, for my brothers and sisters in every country, is one of peace and love.  Let's all try to share a little peace and love with everyone we meet.  The more we radiate love into the world, the better off we will all be.

    Amen to that! Everyone's joy seems so barbaric to me. Yes, his death was probably "just" punishment by law, but I'm sad to see a life end.

    i actually felt a little guilty for feeling conflicted. i went to college in nyc at that time. i feel like i should have felt more...i'm not sure what. mostly i find the entire thing bewildering.
