Maybe we are coming at this Sept 11th anniversary all wrong. I admit to thinking about it more as the day gets closer but I am now feeling that the whole day will be “driven” by the wrong emotions; that we will find it hard not to allow the media to lead the way. In fact, the media is responsible for a lot of the bad memories we have. Not that I think we have to put our heads in the sand, just not allow ourselves to be drawn along in the hunt for the highest ratings… I am getting sick and tired of hellish images being paraded before my face so much that I am resorting to the radio for news… no images, just the facts.
So how will I spend the day? Pretty much the same as is normal for me. But I will remember to pray for the ones who lost families and friends etc. Maybe while I’m at it I should send a few up for the young people that may shortly be involved in a war. (What is it about the Brits that we feel we have to go to war Aug/Sept? Wait until the holidays are over then home before Christmas? Maybe I should look out my old kitbag on the way to Tipperary…)
My very favourite subject (Israel) will be on the next post so don’t go away…
