   There are a lot of things I had planed to write today and the rest of the week. Subjects that I am sure were deep, profound and enlightening. However, far more talented writers than I have done such a great job of if I would think any attempt I can offer would to be too sophomoric and not capture the gravity of the situation and or give any sense of new meaning or any closure to such a still fresh gaping wound.The one that happened 13 years ago today.

 What  happened today thirteen years ago was a horrific act than can only be characterized as senseless mass murder committed cowardly ideologues. Somehow in our zeal to improve, what
 needed  to be done and done quickly be cane apparent we were the bad guys. The whole mess in this area was our fault micromanage, or to generally make life better for those who we thought and others thought were like us . We the devil, Christians, thieves and idolaters who had come to kill the men and rape and enslave the women and children caused all of this carnage and death. Ha we stepped in the world the world have Settled in to blissful state of Utopia and we would all live happily ever after.

   Current and past event suggest otherwise. There far too many major and minor conflicts that could at any moment make the whole mess explode and not be be able to stop until mutually assured destruction is achieved. These lands are ancient and have been occupied by many tribes and groups back and forth wars as raged on. The victor wants land for as long as he could hold it. I cannot see that  stopping Foreign intervention foments these struggles as each tries to whisper dreams of untold wealth, power and continued United States promises of high-tech whiz bangs to show during military parades

   In an ancient area of the Middle East the situation is forever fluid and changes as as there hours in a day. A culture that celebrates death is a very hard one to defeat. We have learned from the Vietnam War that we cannot change the minds and hearts of most of the people. When fighting an oppressed impoverished  people the locals need to be on the front lines. WE provide support, search and rescue and medical, but past that we can do much else other than supply and arm them and offer training and Intel. and Evacuation as a last resort. We cannot fix the entire world as  admirable as that may be. Certain ideologies will never be open it. I think that in life when are beset by those around determined  label an categorize us as "A certain Way". People who have convinced themselves they know us and can see right through us, let them. They now have plenty to do having solved the enigma that was you and know they just that much more. Be glad  for as they are now being so enlightened to trip to Nirvana is that much closer. Also to remember to to forgive. Try to practice everyday. Not necessarily everyone and all the time sometimes not but just in prayer you sent to ask that forgiveness me note and passed forward So I guess it' about forgiveness. " I tried to get down to the heart of the matter, but will gets week and my thoughts seem to scatter,, but I think it's about forgiveness, about forgiveness. I willl continue this practice more and more I  I hope as I start over, over 50
