History in the making....

I'm sitting here watching video on CNN that is being streamed live from 2000 ft below the surface of the earth in Chile! How amazing is 1- the technology that I can see this sight while it's happening and 2- that we have come so far that we've managed to get to a point where "we" as human beings are able to rescue men that are trapped so far under the earth for so long! AND what an amazing display of the human spirit and it's ability to survive! This is the 2nd time in the last 10 years that I've witnessed something that gave me the thought "this will be in the history books"....September 11th and the 33 miners trapped for 68 days. I really didn't have that thought when Katrina happened but know now that it is also something that will be in history books that I was alive for. It's a weird, interesting, surreal feeling!

Amen that these miners are coming home to their families. I pray that they all will make a smooth transition and that much good comes from their experiences!
