RE: here in DC
I can't believe this has happened! We know that life holds tragedies. They are inevitable. But an attack of this magnitude with so many lives stolen! I weep for every victim and for each family, for every hero, and indeed, for all Americans because they are OUR sisters, brothers, children, husbands, wives... We will prevail, the spirit, the hope and compassion which is at the heart of most humans, it cannot be destroyed by acts of hatred and violence! But it is at a great cost and life can never be the same! New York, you are in my prayers, not a moment passes that I do not think of you. I hold you in my heart and I pray for your strength and healing. And in D.C. and California, where family members will not return home to arms that long to embrace them, my prayer goes up that you will survive and know that we too, love your fallen angels and we know the sacrifice which has been torn from all of you. To the brave souls on those doomed flights, I know you've gone on into open arms which will hold you until you can be reunited with those you left behind. I hope you are cradled in love and light in the part of heaven reserved for heroes who have been lost in the name of freedom....
God Bless America!
