SEPTEMBER 11, 2001

 

To everything there is a season,
a time for every purpose under the sun.
A time to be born and a time to die;
a time to plant and a time to pluck up that which is planted;
a time to kill and a time to heal ...


A time to weep and a time to laugh;
a time to mourn and a time to dance ...
a time to embrace and a time to refrain from embracing;
a time to lose and a time to seek;
a time to rend and a time to sew;
a time to keep silent and a time to speak;
a time to love and a time to hate;


A
time for war and a time for PEACE.

Ecclesiastes 3:1-8
Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called 
the children of God. Blessed are they which are persecuted for 
righteousness' sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

 

Matthew 5:9-10

I am planning to leave this here to honor the memory of those that lost their lives that day in New York, Washington, DC and Pennsylvania. A special place in my memory is reserved for those police, fire and EMS workers that perished attempting to save the lives of others.

HIGH FLIGHT
by
John Gillespie Magee, Jr.

Oh, I have slipped the surly bounds of earth

And danced the skies on laughter-silvered wings;

Sunward I've climbed, and joined the tumbling mirth

Of sun-split clouds - and done a thousand things

You have not dreamed of - wheeled and soared and swung

High in the sunlit silence.  Hovering there,

I've chased the shouting wind along , and flung

My eager craft through footless halls of air.

Up, up the long delirious, burning blue

I've topped the windswept heights with easy grace

Where never lark or even eagle flew.

And, while with silent, lifting mind I've trod

The high untrespassed sanctity of space,

Put out my hand and touched the face of God.
