He is greater and stronger. And I was just talking to my mom about the racism and hate. i love how you said it. "be watchful, yes. but hate not." <br /><br />it saddened me that the Pakistani girl i work with was afraid for people to know that she's Muslim. she jokingly said, "i'll be Christian today" or even that she might wear a bindi so that she'll look Hindu. it bothered me because Pakistani people in general and her in particular had absolutely NOTHING to do with 9/11. and yet some people hate and judge and jump to conclusions and assumptions. <br /><br />anyway...beautiful post of remembrance, my dear. thank you for pointing us to the true source of truth, justice, and love.Raehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16916930974009368265noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8842811545737336269.post-75687035784615708892011-09-11T15:15:06.507-05:002011-09-11T15:15:06.507-05:00A beautiful post for a sad day in americas history...A beautiful post for a sad day in americas history.<br /><br />(By the way I'm having a 9/11 link up post,for everyone to link up with there 9/11 rememberance post.)<br /><br /><br /><br />-Blythe<br />asimplefarmgirl.blogspot.comBlythehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16887199446482564640noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8842811545737336269.post-51023116137635507152011-09-11T14:25:52.507-05:002011-09-11T14:25:52.507-05:00Rachel, I had no idea you were so young -- you are...Rachel, I had no idea you were so young -- you are an old soul, my dear -- and I mean that in the best way.
