Wednesday, June 22nd, 2005A Miracle in Utah
The rugged Utah mountains reach into the sky with the beauty of a postcard. From a distance they look harmless. Yesterday an eleven year old boy, missing for four days, was found along a narrow ATV trail and joy replaced fear.
I watch the television news coverage: the repeated video of a child’s dazed, sunburned face; the grins of filthy, sweat stained searchers; the trembling voice of the search commander. I cannot seem to stop my throat from tightening This is the kind of story that too often goes the other way. I have been on those kinds of searches myself and perhaps that is why *this* search touches my heart so much. Or maybe it is because it is a reminder that sometimes things go right; sometimes there are miracles; sometimes a child comes home.
