FW: Sept. 11th a Memorial Affirmation

Sun Sep 8 05:34:28 PDT 2002

Dear Anne,
I have forwarded your affirmation to Bundeskanzler Gerhard Schröder
who is taking an unusually tough stance against a military
intervention in Irak.
I told him that it would not surprise me if your affirmation - which
I fully share as an US-citizen living in Berlin and elsewhere on this
planet - mirrored more closely the feelings and beliefs of
USAmericans than the warthreatening pose of our President.
Peace and Love

Here is the affirmation I am making re. Sept. 11th.  If you wish to
join me,  please communicate your views publicly in whatever way you
choose.  I have sent this letter to several newspapers, and to my
Congress people and to you.

Blessings, Anne

Sept. 11th, Memorial Affirmation:

On Sept. 11th, 2001, the terrorists chose death.  The rescuers and
many of us who rushed to help chose love and life.  A fitting
memorial to those who died on 9/11 would be for each of us to make
the choice the rescuers did.

Here is how I want to honor those who died:  I say:  Enough war.
Enough killing.  I give my gifts to creating a world without war. I
accept my responsibility for the well-being of the human family and
the larger living world.

I want my government leaders to use our treasure on behalf of life.
I say to them: Don t make the same choice the terrorists did.  Stop
making war.  Bend every effort to provide safety through building a
just, sustainable and peaceful global society.
I would rather accept the risks of change in this direction just as
they did who rushed in to rescue people on Sept. 11, 2001.

Sincerely yours,

Anne M. Stadler
