I'm sure we all have much to be thankful for this week.

But read this touching story about what's going on in Afghanistan...what joy they are experiencing now that they're emerging from their darkness!

It starts a litte slow, but read it all the way through...right to the last line. Click the links, too.

"Key-holders".... I like that.

Come to think of it, this would be a nice story to share with family as we give thanks ourselves.

It is noteworthy that the custodians of this artwork have now deemed it safe enough to return to the Afghan people. It shows their trust in the international community and the Coalition in particular that Afghanistan will not be allowed to slip back into anarchy. We cannot betray that trust. We have become the key-holders.

And I thought my pride in President Bush and our military couldn't swell anymore than it had already. Thank you for the story!

Oooo, I hope W goes to Afghanistan, the troops would really like that and probably could use the morale boost.
