With the rains of Hurricane Katrina, there comes a metaphysical rain that washes away debris and trash. These Katrina threads demonstrate it.
There is a saying that a cynic knows the price of everything, but the value of nothing. How can one reduce saving someone's life to tax expenditures is haunting. Tying up the real help needed in a time of real crisis to the letter of the Constitution violates its spirit.
The metaphysical rains of Katrina have now washed away all falsehood and all pretense. People's hearts are now laid bare. Let us all appreciate that for it is valuable, even if we don't like what we see.
To those who didder around on the subject of life, may God replace your hearts of stone with hearts of flesh.
To those who want the people, fellow citizens of our great nation, to live and receive much needed help at this point where it is needed most, may that which you give return to you pressed down, shaken together, and running over (Luke 6:38). You make me proud to be an American.
AMEN BROTHER... I'm copying this post into my journal it's so good. Dearest and I were just talking about this today and why the Pope said 'beware of capitalism'.
Wow...very eloquent. Great post, rdb3.

"May the Sovereign bestow blessings upon you in a measure equal to that which you seek for others...."
LOL! The Constitution is dead. Nice pap.
God bless you, sweetheart. I don't even know you, but you said what needed to be said and I thank you from the bottom of my heart.
