A DAY OF REFLECTION

No doubt most of you remember where you were, who you were with, and what you were doing when the attacks of 9/11/2001 happened. Like the moon landing years before, the event was of such significance that people stayed glued to their radio and/or television for hours. Unlike the moon landing that brought us together in a triumph of achievement, the attacks of 9/ll brought us together in shock, dismay, & grief. The moon landing was over in a short time, but 9/11 went on and on day after day, week after week, stretching into years with search, rescue, funerals, cleanup, memorials – all still fresh in our memories. Our grandchildren will fill its ripples years from now just as we still experience the ripples of Pearl Harbor. Hopefully, prayerfully, by then the Middle East will be allies & friends, just as Japan is a friendly nation to us now.

And hopefully, prayerfully, it won’t take a nuclear incident to achieve that.
