So today, everyone is out!!! I have been engulfed in this rescue mission since it first started. I have been on several prayer chains for these kids and the talented folks doing the rescue dives.

I hope we can learn a lesson from this narrowly missed tragedy.

No one asked if the kids that needed to be rescued were black, white, Hispanic, etc. No one asked if the kids' families were affiliated with a specific political party. No one asked how much money any of the families had or what social status they had attained.

There was one common goal; and a whole lot of people prayed, meditated, sent good thoughts and hoped for a miracle. Many nations were involved in either supplying divers, equipment or prayerful support.

Why can't we, as adults, learn from this?

Everyone is out and the rescue mission was an incredible achievement. The evacuation route was a mile and a half long, requiring three miles of rope. Hopefully they will all survive but some of the boys were in very bad condition. 17 days of horror and anxiety beyond imagination.
