Returning hate for hate multiplies hate, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars. Darkness cannot drive out darkness: only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate: only love can do that." --Martin Luther King, Jr.<br />We have to stop living an Us/Them world. That is the only way we will ever have peace. When we can finally find a way to all be "us."Lisa Vihoshttp://poemoftheweek.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-986578179485371683.post-5505975114017031372011-05-03T17:48:33.663-05:002011-05-03T17:48:33.663-05:00Yes, we are getting more details than I want or ne...Yes, we are getting more details than I want or need...Johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11509881023832201989noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-986578179485371683.post-74294083100657711472011-05-03T17:40:25.316-05:002011-05-03T17:40:25.316-05:00I agree.

I am unhappy about having to hear about where the first bullet hit and then the second bullet. He was our country's enemy but he was not mine. It is difficult to support the survivors of 9/11 and not celebrate this death.

One can feel grateful, perhaps, on the elimination of an evil person who continues to bring evil, but not celebrate same.<br /><br />HarryAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
