On Monday
On Monday there were people fighting
against praying in schools
On Tuesday you would have been hard pressed
to find a school where someone was not praying
On Monday there were people trying to
separate each other by
race,sex, color and creed
On Tuesday they were all holding hands
On Monday we thought that we were secure
On Tuesday we learned better
On Monday we were talking about
heroes as being athletes
On Tuesday we relearned what hero meant
On Monday people went to work at the
world trade centers as usual
On Tuesday they died
On Monday people were fighting the 10 commandments
on government property
On Tuesday the same people all said 'God help us all' while
thinking'Thou shall not kill'
On Monday people argued with their kids
about picking up their room
On Tuesday the same people could not get home
fast enough to hug their kids
On Monday people picked up McDonalds for dinner
On Tuesday they stayed home
On Monday people were upset that their dry
cleaning was not ready on time
On Tuesday they were lining up to give
blood for the dying
On Monday politicians argued about budget surpluses
On Tuesday grief stricken they sang 'God Bless America'
On Monday we worried about the traffic and
getting to work late
On Tuesday we worried about a plane crashing
into your house or place of business
On Monday we were irritated that our
rebate checks had not arrived
On Tuesday we saw people celebrating
people dying in the USA
On Monday some children had solid families
On Tuesday they were orphans
On Monday the president was going to Florida
to read to children
On Tuesday he returned to Washington to
protect our children
On Monday we emailed jokes
On Tuesday we did not
It is sadly ironic how it takes horrific events
to place things into perspective, but it has.
The lessons learned this week, the things we
have taken for granted, the things that have
been forgotten or overlooked, hopefully
will never be forgotten again.
On Monday - pray and be thankful
On Tuesday - pray and be thankful
On Wednesday - pray and be thankful
On Thursday - pray and be thankful
On Friday - pray and be thankful
On Saturday - pray and be thankful
On Sunday - pray and be thankful
Be the change you wish to see
in the world.
