Today I would like to convey my sincere condolences for the victims, their families and friends of the vicious attacks here today in London.
For those who have offered their prayers and concerns, I am fine. Thank you. What happened here was terrible and the feelings of 9/11 in the United States and today in London are similar. The British are amazingly calm and strong during all of this, sadly because of their history with terror. Nevertheless they grieve.
When 9/11 occurred, I was in New Mexico and immediately drove to be with my kids, my family. Absolutely we should never tolerate aggression in any way, still I am compelled to speak out and remind people that we should love more. As we struggle to make sense of events like today, we should also keep in our minds and hearts important memories of good and love like the July 2nd launch of "Live 8 -- Long Walk To Justice" that compels the world's richest nations to help the poorest. It is important to hold events of a higher purpose in greater esteem than these senseless attacks. It is to love, and love more, that truly deserves a voice.
Thank You and God Bless,
Val
