Remember how confused and emotional we were after 9/11?
Why?
With emotions at a fever pitch, tempers flared and many wanted revenge.
Emotions ranged from sorrow to unadulterated rage.
An eye for eye.
Couldn’t help but dig deep under the surface to discern the root cause of such a brutal, seemingly unprovoked and undeserved, and senseless killing of 3,000 innocent people.
Yesterday’s post recalled the answer from the discernment.
Three strikes and you’re out. How many strikes does terrorism get?
Each barbaric, senseless killing of innocent, civilized, free people is another step closer to the world uniting.
We, the peaceful people of the world, are the targeted fascists. Let’s not be blind to the possibility the peaceful world is unknowingly being a passive aggressive bully.
Let’s also not be blind to the possibility that peaceful people may need to arm themselves against a devil so strong, it can no longer be “someone else’s problem”.
Either way, the world owns it.

made it home before dark (a miracle and a story for another time)
The people in Paris were incredibly friendly and helpful. I gave one french employee a hug. Her kindness and generosity touched me. It also saved me from a very scary proposition. I will never treat a lost, panicked tourist the same. I’ll treat them much better.
