Seems it has been one personal loss and national or international tragedy after another. I haven't been too fond of this decade, but you are right: Life is precious and there is much to be thankful for.Madcap Baroness with Teacuphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09723683209792342475noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22678097.post-45118565818759567532007-09-13T08:08:00.000-04:002007-09-13T08:08:00.000-04:00Thank you for this, KJ.

I remember the day as if it was yesterday, my office was then on the 15th floor of the World Trade Centre in Brussels. My wife phoned me and said: 'Get out of there, terrorists are attacking the world trade centres'. Some time after we left the building and formed a silent human chain round the WTC area in Brussels. I was interviewed by our national TV, it seems that what I said hit my little country like a bomb, friends called me that day and the whole week to thank me for voicing what a lot of them felt.pieterbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02410340506959326985noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22678097.post-62502428472561577382007-09-12T15:10:00.000-04:002007-09-12T15:10:00.000-04:00wieneke, the world changed and opportunity for com...wieneke, the world changed and opportunity for commonality was lost with it (my opinion). i pray for more peaceful solutions.<BR/><BR/>rm, ces is always up to something fishy. except now she's <BR/>"peppering" and stewing things up at the same time. <BR/><BR/>i hope your hard day has softened... :)<BR/><BR/>cs, yes, i agree. you've made a strong and important point.kjhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15122196887043345981noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22678097.post-35328249135362932182007-09-12T12:50:00.000-04:002007-09-12T12:50:00.000-04:00Indeed.

I remember our absolute unbelief while looking at the television where we could see the planes flying into the WTC. This is not true, this is a very bad film, I said to my husband.
