moved to tears

mine is a family blog. it's a place for me to document and share the things we've been doing and how cute the kids look while doing it. this post is of a different nature, but please don't run away. no matter what your political views, i think all americans can benefit from listening to gen. colin powell's interview on 'meet the press'.(skip to about 1:30 for the beginning of the interview, listening through 7:30)

his words spoke to everything i have learned about islam from three cups of tea to my religions courses at school. he gave me the chills and then made me cry.
