This is an excerpt from a speech given by Glenn Beck, addressing the Knesset in Israel. "The last century was a century of genocide. A century where evil rose up again and again… swallowing up the lives of millions. But evil met its match. Goodness eventually prevailed. People like Dietrich Bonhoeffer, Martin Luther King Jr. and Lech Walesa and Mother Theresa and Henrietta Szold awoke the world. They gave their lives to the pursuit of human rights. They took the side of justice against injustice, they held aloft the torch of freedom to push out the darkness of hate. These men and women lived difficult lives. They often lived shortened lives. They were often born to relative privilege, but willing to take on suffering. They did want not to martyr themselves. They would have happily lived to the end of their natural lives in comfort… but to the righteous, there is no comfort when evil has taken root."

  I do not believe in angels, ghosts, monsters, or fairies. However, others are not delusional when they "see" these things. Memories are audio/visual/emotional imprints on our brain of people, places, and things we have known.   At no time was this clearer to me than when I saw my husband, hours after his death, walk through our dining room. I saw a vivid image of him walking toward me then he disappeared before my eyes. Others would think this was his ghost departing. I know it was a view I had seen so many times before, which repeated itself at a time he was so present in my mind.   I have been thinking of him lately but he now is appearing only in my dreams. He is not usually present in my dreams so clearly my brain is bringing him up through dreams into my waking thoughts. (This has also occurred quite alot with my best friend, Tony, who passed last year.)   This is all so easy to dismiss. Valentine's Day is coming up and I am with someone else...
