Heathrow Crash Aftermath: Celebration of LIFE

I am sure you've heard about the British Airways jet that crash-landed short of the runway at London Heathrow this past Thursday, January 17th. Everyone survived the crash, and only 19 people were hurt. I have been watching and reading with much interest the news reports on this, and have been appalled at the ho-hum response to this miraculous event by many news outlets. My local paper had a small article on it on the back page. Back page! This should be front page news!

If those 19 people who got hurt were killed, it would have been splashed all over front page. But no, nobody died, so this sick culture that glorifies death & misery ignores it. This was a miracle! This culture embraces death, glorifies it, revels in it. I feel that ignoring relevance of Heathrow crash is a rejection of LIFE. And it's a deliberate turning away from...goodness, and joy, and happiness. Heathrow crash with all survivors is a beautiful thing.

I should be used to it by now living in this world but I'm appalled by yet another sign of how very sick 'modern' American culture is. This is a wonderful, wonderful event. I wish this culture celebrated great events with as much intensity as tragic ones. The crash news is fantastic and should be a celebration of life, and joy. What amazing, wonderful news. It's a great reminder to me that life is so brief and fleeting. I find it such a gift to experience it. This time I have to be alive means something! I embrace my life, my time. Do you?
