A railroad switch point on the tracks at the Golden Spike National Historic Park There is a lot I don't know. I don't know who will lead the United States for the next four years (at the time I'm composing this post, that hasn't been determined yet.) I don't know when covid cases will stop rising in my state and start decreasing. I don't know how challenging situations will turn out. There is much uncertainty in life. Living in limbo-land is hard. It's emotionally exhausting. It can be immobilizing. My body seems to think chocolate is the answer, but I know that isn't a long-term solution. What do I need in times like these? I need to REMEMBER . 1. R esilience. People are resilient. I am resilient. I'm thankful for resilience. 2. " E ach Life That Touches Ours for Good." So many people, both those I know in "real life," and those I have only met virtually, have taught me, encouraged me, and been examples to me. I'm thankful
Thank you it is a sad day indeed - I will check the video when I get home tonight -
ReplyDelete9-11-01 was such a shocking day. It's nice to be reminded of the examples of goodness that were demonstrated amidst such horror.
DeleteIt is interesting to see this day through the eyes of students like my Granddaughter who weren't here when it happened. They've seen videos on Youtube but are shocked that WE actually remember seeing it live on TV.
ReplyDeleteYes. Kind of like those of us who have seen footage of the bombing of Pearl Harbor, but were not alive at the time.
DeleteI think you know that my husband's job is very much related to all of this, and, in fact, he worked until midnight last night... I can't write about it but I'm so glad that you shared this today. We must always remember to be better, to do better, and to teach better. <3
ReplyDeleteTell your husband thank you for his efforts.
