Thanks for some very worthwhile thoughts. I have a sense that America had reached a threshold and a turning point before the WTC cataclysm. As a people, where were we headed? What was out motivation other than to make more money? The great whirlwind of ideas and business concepts stirred up by the Internet and the digital "communications revolution" had mushroomed too far, too fast. The Internet and related developments created a new frontier for the expression of intellect and channeling of resources. The ensuing collapse was so much more disappointing because the fresh rush of new concepts had been so invigorating. That left a vacuum. The WTC catastrophe stepped in to fill the vacuum of our consciousness. As horrific as these events are, American's and her allies have always risen to the occasion to push through our differences and take action. America and all in the free world always need a set of central organizing and motivating principles. Sometimes, if just through time, these principles can become ignored or loose their thrust. This wake-up call brings them clearly into view. If anyone wants to renew a quest for life, then seek out these principles and apply them with others' benefit in the forefront. Ashes to ashes, dust to dust . . . none of us live forever in body. There is very much to be done and we need to get very busy at it.
