Chilean Mine Rescue

The Chilean mine story has really impacted me.  I remember when the miners were first stranded, and I thought how could they stay until possibly Christmas?  The dilemma of do you tell them they could be down there for up to 4 months was just wrenching.  Then as the reports came that the rescue would be sooner.  To hear the men singing was fascinating. 

Monday the report was rescue was imminent.  I thought that meant that day and as I got ready for work that morning I was excited.

This morning as I watched one man surface I literally cried.

I don't know why, but this is such a gripping news story to me.
