He was a monster...

….celebration ?

I am experiencing profound unrest surrounding the footage I am seeing in celebration today.

My reaction to the news of Bin Laden’s end causes a very somber feeling within.

To see young children in glee, and stock market analyst lit up is almost more than I can look at.

He was a monster... And ...not a lone monster.

Are we actually naive enough to feel his death is the end of the horror?

The Shift I would like to see in the mindset of this planet is one that takes us past the retaliation response to one that acknowledges the great learning invited by this event.

And allow ourselves to be better...

Well said, Linda and thanks for your vision of a Shift "in the mindset of this planet". With Aloha, Teresa
Dear Linda,

Thank you for sharing ... :-x ...

Since I am having to work off of a netbook, may i ask you to please reference my response post to Salanda's response post to my Blog post on this topic ... just so I don't need to attempt to retype some of the same comments I shared there? ... ?:| ...

I believe as in almost every situation in life, we must ALL allow for individual differences in perception ... I do not celebrate Osama bin Laden's death ,,, but, I do recognize it for the monumental event it IS and the vast implications it will have for the world moving forward ... I do not believe that even those "celebrating" his demise are naive enough to believe his death marks the end of terrorism ... We have always had our work cut out for us in that regard, but this IS nevertheless a monumental event and one which will and has resonated throughout the world ...

With hope that you will come to recognize its implications for a more peaceful world ...

With gratitude, respect, love, and many blessings ... :-x ...

Aloha pume hana,

Barb
