“I never knew you, Yet I think I could not refuse this
moment to die for you, if that would save you” Walt Whitman
The smile:
Ben was six years old
when we began going to a church on the north side of town. The people were
friendly and accepting. The building was much bigger than the church we
attended previously. Ben walked through the halls holding my hand and taking in
everything with an amount of awe.
He stopped at a plaque on one wall that was rather large and
covered with names. He asked, “Who are all these people, Daddy?”
I smiled and reverently told him, “These are men that died
in service. This plaque is to honor and remember them.”
Ben continued to stare. After a long pause he looked up at
me and asked “Was it in the 9:00 service or the 11:00 service?”
The ponder:
What are the circumstances that would have to exist for us
to not have war in the world?
