The war in Ukraine

Well isn’t this a travesty? What is wrong with Putin? Has he gone over the edge? It sure seems so. I understand after 20+ years as a dictator it is kind of normal to lose your mind.

The people of Ukraine are in a hell that they neither understand or deserve. We as a world should be past this type of thing. I find it hard to believe a Hitler like person is still in power. This is a horrible thing these people are going through. They need all the help they can get.

I must say the people of Ukraine are unbelievable patriots and will fight to the bitter end for their country, They are a strong people and I pray for them. They say they will fight to the bitter end for their home land. Gods speed to them all.

I can only hope someone gets to Putin soon and puts an end to the killing of innocent people and CHILDREN. It is truly hard to believe someone could bomb schools, nursery schools and such. This is against all human beliefs. Let alone world laws.

May we all pray for the people of Ukraine and allow them to find an end to this terrible war.

The worst day for our country that I’ve experienced by far.

It was morning and I was at work. News came over something probably one of the computers. We went into out large conference room at Seneca Data and the TV was showing the horror. I wondered if it was a strike or some kind of accident. I couldn’t stop watching I think for the rest of the day. I don’t think I could have spoken. It was such a terrible day. Then the second plane hit the other tower, and I knew it was no accident.  Seeing people jumping to get out of the towers, seeing the carnage happening wondering what will happen next. Then the Pentagon and then the people bringing down the 4th. What courage people have in America. It was a day we can never forget.

  I remember President Bush being told as he sat with the children. I could see the horror in his eyes. I must say I was extremely proud that he was president at that time. He did not hesitate on anything. It’s not for me to judge his decisions. I was glad he moved quickly and went after those that harmed our great nation. Many people died that day and are still dying today because of that day.

Now the people that were in charge of this horrific act own Afghanistan. Talk about “that’s not right” I know we can’t do things like this but I wish we could have just blown up the whole country over there and been done with it. Instead we spent 20 years there and our solders did good this. To bad it all fell apart on our exit. That’s another post entirely.

Anyway lets be sure we keep our military personnel in our prayers and hope someday things will get better. It’s a hard lesson and a hard road to recovery from such an act. It will never be forgotten by me and I’m sure anyone that was alive at the time will not forget. Here and abroad.

God bless America and our people.
