What happened in Boston is living proof of what happens when America is united. If you think about it, America has never lost a war due to a lack of military strength. Historically, our biggest downfall comes when we are divided, whether its passing a simple bill on background checks for guns,the fiscal cliff and recession or the Vietnam war, divided, we fall.
But then, something like tonight comes along, when an entire nation is united to find one man, not only do we find him, we offer him a chance a little mercy and justice. Truly, united, we stand.

crazy
My life has been crazy of recent.
The crazier the world, the calmer, stabler must you be. The more ambiguous, the darker the world, the clearer, brighter must you shine.
I do not mean that the hardest stick survives the fiercest waves. I mean water is able to fit to all forms, because it never changes its basic properties. (unless you're poisoned, which just sucks.).

Happy.
As a writer, Joss Whedon is another example that today's literature has transferred from yesterdays' poetry and novels to today's young adult fiction, video games and film.
Shadowcat: Everything is so fragile. There's so much conflict, so much pain...you keep waiting for the dust to settle and then you realize it; the dust is your life going on. If happy comes along -- that weird unbearable delight that's actual happy -- I think you have to grab it while you can. You take what you can get, 'cause it's here, and then...gone.
She's right, the world is dust, sand, and we constantly try and build a sandcastle. But if we build it on something permanant, something greater than our insignificant selves, like an idea, a belief that can keep on sharing the light to future generations (think V for Vendetta)... now thats immortality. That is stone. Place our faith in the intangible, and your happy won't get blown away with the first bullet.

Homeland
As I have observed my homeland, I
have come to find that at the heart of everything we believe lies this simple
truth. There is a light of goodness in all of us. We must let that light shine as we strive for the
hill of our dreams, because in that venture our shine will scatter away darkness and beckon other lights to come. For it is in the
PURSUIT of our life, our freedoms and our dreams that our nation and our world
becomes a brighter place to live.
There's gotta be a better way to say that...
