Our class was also watching the launch, live. Except my class had a little something 'extra' included, a nice big cake and refreshments! It was my
birthday, after all.
The day started with my head in the clouds, "everyone will remember this day, with yummy treats and even a rocket launch!"
What could be a better 'insta-popular' activity, for the new kid in class? Unless, of course, something goes terribly wrong? All of a sudden, eyes
are all on me! I was crushed. It took forever, for my parents to convince me that it wasn't my 'bad luck'.
Very bad day, for sure. The image of the horrific explosion seared into my mind forever, along with the tears of my school's administration. A
painful punch in the belly, to hopeful teachers and educators, everywhere. Do you remember that the teacher was scheduled to give the very first
lesson from outer-space?
Peace, love, and hope to the families, and all who was affected by the tragedy!
