On Their Behalf

. . . On their behalf
we pledge allegiance
to 200 nations under God
with liberty and justice for all

~jpc, from poem

Find the poetry, music, art, or other spiritual exercise that helps you memorialize 9/11 and similar events globally: Bali . . . Madrid . . . Beslan (Russia) . . . all over Palestine, Israel, Iraq, Sudan, Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, Afghanistan. These may not be as horrific as Hiroshima, Europe of WWII, Cambodia's "killing fields," or genocide in Rwanda, but they hurt the human soul as deeply. ~jpc

This morning we made a contribution to refugees in Liberia and Darfur, in memory of those who died in 9/11.
