since hearing the news about the bombings thursday i’ve been thinking about london a lot…
i’ve got good friends from england… that’s where my mum and dad are from too… so i feel a bit of a connection…
and i have the same sick feeling inside as i did when 9/11 happened…
i’m pissed off… i’m disgusted… and i’m sad… very sad…
so what do you do???… what do i do, i mean???…
well five or six years ago… pre meeting love-of-my-life karen… seeing b.s. like this unfold would have certainly been yet more proof that the world was hosed and getting worse and would further my resolve to never have kids…
forward to now… i’m in love… married… with two wonderful children… paradigm shift along the way???.. you betcha…
from then to now i’ve come to realize that the only way to have a shot at a better world is to have kids and do your damndest to give ‘em the tools to be good people… ‘cuz they and their children are the ones who are going to be able to make life better going forward… easier said than done but worth the effort methinks…
i think the people of london could not have acted any better this week… i applaud them… there’s a history of toughness there… i’ve talked briefly with my grandmother about her experiences during the battle of britain… and i was amazed to see the brotherhood and solidarity of new york after 9/11…
so i think what we do is give the bad guys the finger both in the day-to-day and in the long term as well… live life… love your fellow man… ‘s what i’m gonna do anyway… i think love wins in the end…
