Title: My response to the NASA tragedy in 2003
I wrote this last year and the Editor of the Nugget in my city published it on Feb 12th, 2003.
'The tragedy that occured with NASA recently is not just another blown-up rocket that took seven lives away with the snap of a finger.
'So what?' You could say. 'The rocket remains landed in Texas, and those people were no relation to me. Why go around mourning when there are soccer practices, baseball sign-ups and numerous bills to be paid. Who cares?'
Well, if that's the case, you probably haven't noticed all the flags at half-mast............. a national death.
I am proud of those who died, they who reminded us that God is in charge of life and death. I ask the Master to care for them and to help us care for those who are left behind.
Meanwhile, let's give a round of applause for those who are being courageous in the face of their loved one's death and then bow our heads in respect for those who died.'
The tragedy I was referring to here was the January 20th rocket accident. Seven people died, and large pieces of the rocket were found out in Texas.
