The Jews and the Palestinians are at it again. Not really; they’ve never stopped. Their fifty year battle is less to do with land and more to do with religion. Who’s got the mightier God? In this particular case, the one’s got the well-financed God and the other’s got the fertility God.

So this situation is not so much a destiny-driven case as one of school-yard mentality.

A better case for “destiny” might be the type of happening such as reported in the news yesterday, where an American plane had a sort-of-a crash landing. It was met with a flock of Canada geese shortly after take-off and was forced to land in the Hudson river.

All 150 passengers survived the crash, with 4 being treated for hypothermia.

So, in the grand scheme of things, what was the purpose of this crash? Were these 150+ folks to be taught a lesson? What was the lesson? There should be a lesson here, don’t you agree?After all there are thousands of such incidents caused by birds per week but rarely do they result in a crash.

Why exercise this whole event with no casualties? Are we supposed to be the real beneficiaries of this news?

What would you be thinking if you were on that flight? What are your thoughts as a bystander?

I saw a flicker of light at the end of the tunnel yesterday regarding Haiti in my seemingly never-ending search for aid for the Haitians.

There was a segment on 60 Minutes (the American investigation reports sort of show) featuring a Haitian/American celebrity who has started a charity and who has, on many occasions, actually travelled to Haiti .

Hands-on connection from an insider who would know how to negotiate and zero-in on the areas most affected and in need of immediate attention, is priceless. 

So here is some information that you may find helpful. Check it out!
