OT: FW: NEWSFLASH: Shuttle Discovery touches down safely

[Guest guest]

When the Challenger exploded, I was a nursing student caring for a patient. I

won't forget that tragic day either. The Columbia, I was watching it on tv, it

was horrible. The twin towers, was unbelievable. That terrorist hit our United

States, was so moving and filled with saddness.

 

So many tragic things happens during a life time. JFK assaination, Bobby's

assaination, Kings assaination, I remember those as well. And John John's plane

went down. All of these deaths, died to young, with so much yet to give. Soo

sad.

 

For every terrible thing, there's good and healing things happening too. Which

is how i have to look at it. As well as a reason for these untimely deaths.

One we may never know, but it's there somewhere.

 

Our shuttle landed safely this am. Much to grateful about.

We must be close to the same age - I remember when President Kennedy was shot.

That was a few weeks before my 8th birthday.

Hurray for the shuttle!

 

I may be a Luddite when it comes to my food,

I also hope to see humanity in space.

Space is to this generation what ocean exploration

was to previous centuries.

 

As a species, exploration is part of who we are.

Sooner or later, we gotta get off planet!

 

Why can't we enlist all those extreme athletes

who go in for life-risking sports into space work instead?

It appears quite a few folks don't feel alive unless

they are at immediate risk of dying.

Let's use that energy for something constructive!

 

Beam me up, Scotty..
