That was a real sweet and thoughtful gesture. That support means a lot to me, anyway. My ex-husband was in the Pentagon, the South side, when it was hit.

I knew there were some good cultures out there... I am glad this hit the news.
Remember the love that was in this country for about a month after the attack? We as Americans would say hello to each other again, start conversations with people we didn't know - we felt like a community instead of a group of people who happen to live on a piece of land.
I miss that feeling. 
This has resurrected some of that for me. When you give from the heart, you create that feeling in others. I am hoping this will get a LOT of press time. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Charean, that is a great sentiment, and I agree whole heartedly. All it takes is a few random acts of kindness as someone posted in another thread. If we each act with courtesy and dignity I think that feeling can happen again.
