One Lutheran's Thoughts

Live and grow, change, reform...well, this blog used to be my 'primary' space, but not any more. This is now the online 'home' of my poetic ramblings and musings. Sometimes there is a faith/theological hue, while others not so much. Check out the pictures. Remember - literacy is visual too!

Reflections on 9/11

Hate, anger, frustration, fear, nervousness, pissed, tired, worried, wary, tears, crying, loss and frustration. These words summarize my feelings as I sit back and reflect on the events of 9/11/01. I remember where I was physically when I saw on TV what was happening - I was getting ready to head out to Bradley's Anthro. of Ed. class. I thought they were showing clips from a movie or clips from a previous historical event that I didn't remember. Then I heard the announcer - Bryant Gumble - say something that made me listen a little more closely. Wow - this was real, this was really happening. In the next several minutes I began to question if this was the end of the world. Well today, through the random news we are constantly hearing the names of those who died. Yet interspersed throughout are bulletins about the upcoming war with Iraq and the killing Al Quaida. When does it stop?
