September 11, 2011

I listened to the announcer as he described the chaos of 9/11 when the planes crashed into the World Trade Center in New York City and an overwhelming feeling of fear overcame me. That knowledge that there are circumstances in this world that we have no control over and, yet, have lasting effects on our lives. Terrorism/Illness/War. We ask ourselves, how can this be?

With few answers as to why, I wonder, how do we cope with these circumstances? Until those answers are revealed, I offer support, caring, and understanding to persevere. What more do we have then each other and our own concepts of God?

Please take a moment to share your thoughts and coping strategies as I believe we will all benefit from your contribution. Thank you and be well.

Over 300 NYC FIREFIGHTERS died on 911 but they saved over 20,000 lives. ...heroes, all of them. They showed great courage and respect for life
. If only we humans showed that kind of compassion and lack pf self involvement once a day..we might have a chance ...peace to all...Karen?
