As we gather together to comfort each other during this tragedy that
occurred on 9/11/2001 I take this space on my website as a memorial
tribute to those who lost their lives, their loved ones and for all of
us who grieve along with them.
I've gathered the list in the hope that it may help in encouraging everyone towards positive action. Anger is a mask for fear, pain and shame. Anger is not what is needed to start the healing process and rebuilding lives. Revenge is the wheel that rolls back on the one who started it. We seek justice, not revenge. We are determined and resolved to fight terrorism world wide, not to seek personal revenge and continue the sick cycle of hate. |

Standing on the edge of a new
age can be dizzying. It can also be exhilarating because we can work to
make things better. So in this spirit I offer my "bit"
in the relief effort. These are urls here on this new page that will
lead you to information, agencies that provide disaster relief, even the
FBI if you have information that will help solve this crime. There is
advice to parents of small children. There is the reaction from the
American Muslim community of which I am part. There is the Magic/Prayer
plan, which worked wonderfully last night, and I invite you to join us
for the next 8 nights to pray for Peace.
I cannot give blood, they don't
want mine.
I donate "spare
money" to list members who are in need, so cash donations to
relief efforts are limited.
There is only one thing I can
do and that is to communicate through these lists, to people who in the
past have proven to me time and time again that I have something in
common with them.
In guiding the energies on the
list I posted these half dozen posts yesterday. I'll be
gathering up more as time goes on. We are at a crossroad in history.
With this email I reach around the world. Through pictures in albums I
invite you into my life and you do the same for me. We've met, some of
us, hung out and reaffirmed that we do have something in common that is
important to us.
We are all more alike than
different in this ability to reach out and invade the consciousness of
our list mates. The message I'm dedicated to relate to as many as
possible is this: We have the opportunity to be the best that we can be
in aiding others at this time. We have this moment in time to make our
hearts resolved to put our efforts to comforting and rebuilding
shattered lives. We have this fork in the road of the history of modern
humans to get over our differences and work together.
If like me, you cannot donate
blood, you don't have "spare change", you might feel impotent
in anger, fear and pain. There is something you can do. Comfort others,
volunteer your energies to relief efforts, and most importantly endeavor
not to spread more hate and continue the destructive wheel of revenge.
We have the invitation to become Heroes and Heroines. Let's not turn it
down.
