What an interesting last few days we've had, here, in North America... eh?
Let's just look at it in reverse order here - shall we...
September the 13th - mercifully a Sunday
September the 12th - Saturday...
the birthday of a great man I know...
(he knows who he is!)
And then there's this other anniversary to commemorate...
September the 11th - ''9/11'' forevermore...
and September the 10th - Thursday
was devoted to this...
now THAT is the luculent
-and therefore luminous-
thing to do!
However...
I would be remiss if I didn't add that,
in my utmost luminous humble opinion,
it would have been most exemplary
as it would have sent the most
clear message of all
-and clarity is the essence
of luminescence, also-
to have the ''WSPD''
set on the same date
as that which saw
a bunch of suicidal extremists
hijack commercial planes
and force hundreds to die along with them
as they chose the wrongest way
to send their own message...
For suicide is always the wrong choice
but a kamikaze suicide
has got to be the wrongest of all
wrong choices.
You simultaneously choose to snuff out
another's existence -with no right-
on top of taking your own;
to which you have no right either.
FOR GOD GAVE YOU LIFE -
AND YOU SHALL NOT TAKE IT
AND SIMPLY THROW IT AWAY.
That, I tell you, would be a powerful message:
to stage the World Suicide Prevention Day action
on the same day we remember the heinous acts
of a handful of bastards who had no respect for LIFE
and therefore none for their very own GOD either.
Maybe next year, hmm?
Sempre Por O Melhor
