Do not fret because of evildoers, nor be envious of the wicked; for there will be no prospect for the evil man; the lamp of the wicked will be put out."<br /><br />My response to that: I do not rejoice but I am definitely happy the lamp of the wicked is put out.<br />I am NOT an American. I was NOT even in US when this happened... I was in a place where I saw people throw a party when the news was being aired of the planes crashing into twin towers. I was a minority there and felt helpless I couldnt react. Had all that anger bottled up All these years. So this news brought so much of elation and the feeling of Justice being meted out!<br />This is an alien feeling to me. I am a kind and compassionate person by nature and wondering where this is coming from! BUT no regrets!Mary Abrahamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06395229309917173939noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-415462951121361307.post-58973265347244318012011-05-03T13:33:50.661-05:002011-05-03T13:33:50.661-05:00Thanks Laine.

I'm going to share it with our oldest, as I'm guessing the talk at school is probably really confusing to her.lainehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08517541257659998317noreply@blogger.com
