Numbers here in the usa you call for emergency. It's now a wobble in our calendar. Terror day the new holiday, soon you know there will be greeting cards for it. Tasteful I'm sure, "remembering you on this terror day" or "the towers fell but you're still standing."

The crazy thing of fear is it will draw the lines between us and them like no other motivation us humans feel. Fear is like nitro for the being; even full bridled passion can't touch the amount of endorphins and spike in bodily functions brought on by some fright. We have all experience the sense in a dark room of seeing an object and the mind quickly identifies the broom standing in the corner as an axe murdered. Usually before running through the sliding glass door you realize sheepishly that it was only an underused household implement.

This emotion is easily manipulated, we can point to any of the major religions and see that fear is the wheat being spun into gold. Preachings of intolerance are the norm. There is a lot of press conference talk about, "can't we all get along?" We want to believe this is true, maybe we are afraid of how deep the divisions on the planet go. Like kids that always fight parents think they'll just grow out of it. Do you think Abraham looks at the children of his line and wonders, "when will they put down the rocks, missiles and bombing tactics and just play nice?"

A physicist can do the math for you but the fact is that you breath a few particles of Caesar's last breath every day. There are only so many molecules. So in this world of division by nation, religion, language, politics realize that each breath could have been shared by that person or organization you fear most. The rain that falls gently in your backyard ran in a stream through the village where your villain was born. We have no choice, no semantic can clear away the fact that we are all connected.

Breath the scent of fear in let the whisper of love exhale out.
