Blue Roses

Got this forward today. I'm feeling so helpless, at least these morale boosters help a little bit.

> Ever since yesterday morning, the chorus from one of my favorite songs has been running through my head, over and over again. The words just seem to speak to what's going on right now.

> Don't let the light go out --
> It's lasted for so many years!
> Don't let the light go out --
> Let it shine through our love and our tears!

> What has happened is an attack on the light of freedom, the light of sanity, the light of peace and hope, all across the world. Let's show the cowards responsible for the attack that it failed! Tomorrow night, 9/13/2001 (American date), put a candle in your window or on your porch, anywhere that it can be seen.

> Picture it -- from every neighborhood, in every city across the globe, tiny points of light glowing in triumph!

> We can make it happen. Forward this to every list you're on, to every email contact you have. Talk to your neighbors about it. Spread the word. We *can* make it happen!

Kate and I are doing it.
