I remember clearly what I was doing at this moment 7 years ago. Watching horror unfold on my television. It wasn't a movie though as much as we all wished it was. All of our lives were changing, whether you were in the states of 5000 miles away. I won't go into what *I* went through because thousands of families went through, and are still going through, much more. I had a job to do then and I did it with pride. Goddess (or God) puts no more on us than we can bear. I sit here this morning, the man I love by my side and I can't help but blink away tears at those memories. Two mighty giants came crashing down and our world will never be the same.
Part of my time was spent helping others cope. As a Priestess it was part of my duty as one of the Goddess' own. Below is just one of the many pieces I used to help others and myself get through.
Where were the Gods
First of all, Odin was trying to discourage anyone from taking this flight. Those four flights together held over 1000 passengers and there were only 266 aboard.
Tyr was on 4 commerical flights giving terrified passengers the ability to stay calm. Not one of the family members who was called by a loved one on one of the hijacked planes said that passengers were screaming in the background. On one of the flights he was giving strength to passengers to try to overpower the hijackers.
Loki was busy trying to create obstacles for employees at the World Trade Center. After all, only 20,000 were at the Towers when the first jet hit. Since the buildings hold over 50,000 workers, this was a miracle in itself. How many of the people who were employeed at the WTC told the media they were late for work or they had traffic delays?
Thor was holding holding up the two 110-story buildings so that the 2/3 of the workers who were there could get out.
The Gods were busy......
I'll never forget I don't think any of us can.
Love and Light,
