Calendar Dates

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
