October 12 - 13 2010 will be two days I will never forget! In this world of unspeakable crime ... wars ... crazy weather happenings. There are very VERY few happy things on our news channels anymore. So to sit and watch The Chilean Miners be rescued .. one by one ... to sit there and see the smiles and tears of extreme JOY on the faces of there loved ones was truly amazing!! Last night .. as the last few miners were brought up. I brought Sage In to watch .. live on my computer. Now In her 8 yr old mind the ability to totally grasp the true Immense power of the miracle she was witnessing was a bit .. well ... lacking lol! But that there Is one of those amazing moments In life that we should all let our children experience! That lil bit of pure .. unedited Joy! This was no movie, this was no book or reality show. THIS was LIFE! It was a miracle .. how many of us can say that we have witnessed a real .. honest to goodness MIRACLE!!! The faith amongst those miners ... the Pride amongst there people who stood around the world and watched and prayed for there people. And the amazing selflessness of the Chilean President to stay there .. for those two days and greet each miner ... there families .. the rescuers was truly amazing! Most presidents would have done there "duty" .. toured the site, said a few words and been gone. Not him. He stayed .. and he didnt stay out of duty or because the world was watching and It would make him look good. He stayed because those were his people down there , and he loved each of them and he wasnt going to leave them until ALL were safe and home with there families. Theres alot to be said about a man like that!! I hope we all have just a piece of that Inside ourselves. I also hope that we pass that piece onto our children and cultivate that true kind of love and compassion that he showed. We were born onto this earth without sin .. to spread love and peace throughtout the land and because of sin theres awsome amounts of hatred Instead. Lets all practice spreading the love and compassion this world was meant to have and see.
