kittenmmm's blog post - Tears

I spent a lot of time thinking today...about my friends in England that I've met through NN, about September 11th in the US, about the dangers of mixing fanatical religion with a cause and about the men and women who are overseas right now trying their best to do what is right and just get home.

My heart goes out to those in England who must deal with this latest tragedy. I really do feel for you. I know how it feels...the shock, disbelief, impotence and anger. Yes, I lost people I knew in Sept 11. I worry about the people I know in England... I don't want to go through it again and I hope no one here has to do so either.

After dealing with that, I came to the conclusion that I could not and would not allow these simple minded terrorists to control me and mine. We will continue to live and be happy despite their efforts to beat us down. We will work on ways to provide for us and for others, good steady food supplies, independence from establlished methods of power and love....which is the strongest thing we have to combat them. We will continue to love our brothers regardless of race, sex, creed or location. This my people, is the only thing that will beat them. Regardless of what they do to us...as long as we have each other...as long as love each other...they cannot beat us.

I love you .. all of you, and hold you all close in my heart tonight and hope that this tragedy has not harmed you or your loved ones.
