In yet another instance of finite wisdom, I never saw it coming with LAPOE. Records have come to mind left and right over recent days, and have poignantly struck me with their relevancy. Knowing that time didn't permit working up an unrehearsed song, I didn't expect One Step Closer to Knowing, Walk On, or Heartland to be selected. But then tonight there was LAPOE, directed loud and clear to Americans and our republic. As the band played and Bono sang, messages were ringing true like church bells. Which one penetrated the most? I think it might be the lyric "Baby don't fight, we can talk this thing through... and I wonder, where is the love." Let's not restrict our effectiveness (by taking up a fight among ourselves) during these continuous relief operations. Now is not the time for a struggle, it's the time for unity. The people of this country need love and peace. Thank God for all who are providing the 'HELP' our countrymen need.
