In the course of our lives, we inevitably face a choice...how to respond to circumstances beyond our control.
We can choose to take the low road...to find the lowest common denominator. Take post-Katrina New Orleans for example.
Occasionally, an entire people will react as one to horror beyond fathom. Take New York, and the entire nation, in response to the September 11th attacks.
It fills me with pride to see the people of my ancestral home, Virginia, rise as one...to rebuild after the recent quake that struck the area. To show courage in the face of such a daunting task...
