I loved making these origami paper cranes when I was a child. I was taught by Japanese friend of the family when we were stationed in Japan. It's a small, calming, creative action, taking a piece of paper and transforming it into something else.
At home we are hearing Saddam is alive and well. This photo was released with the question Saddam or a double. Soldiers are still dying. Civilians are still dying. The photos of the soldiers caskets draped with flag are no longer permitted to be shown in the news. President's orders. He says it is a compassionate thing he orders for the sake of the families of the loved ones who are dying.
'And Should We Die' is a historical novel, written by Arthur Ruger, with a compassionate look at a little known tragedy in American pioneer history; the Willie-Martin handcart trek (the last of the handcart pilgrimages) with incredulous hardships that took so many lives. A novel about faith and courage in the Old American West.
