A WORD OR TWO FROM ME
by Karen E. Jarosz ( Karen@lonekeep.com)
------------------------------------------------------------------
Where to begin? This week has proven to be a most difficult one for all
Americans. I wish to express my deepest condolences to all that lost
a loved one in this tragedy. I cannot even begin to imagine the pain and
sense of loss felt by those who lost a loved one... We as a nation have
been hard hit by this but in just the first few hours after the attack
it was clear to me why America is the greatest nation to live in. Complete
strangers pulling together and working together to recover. The response
has been tremendous! To me it just proves that in every human being there
is a good heart...I myself grew up in New York and am still having a tough
time accepting that the Towers are gone and that the city that nevers
sleeps is in a deep state of mourning... To the firemen, policemen and
the volunteers, I say God Bless everyone of you and your families. You
are what heroes are made of!
To all of us in the days ahead I pray this Irish blessing for you
May the road rise to meet you, may the wind be ever at your back
may the rain fall soft upon your field and the sun shine warm upon
your face and may the Lord hold you and yours in palm of His hand.
God Bless us all and God Bless America! Stay united and be good to
one another...
Karen
PS - Be sure to call ahead for Local Happenings as some events may be cancelled or
postponed
due to the tragedy on Tuesday...
