“The cost of freedom is always high, but Americans have always paid it. And one path we shall never choose, and that is the path of surrender, or submission.” ~John F. Kennedy

Like most American’s I remember the weather that day and exactly what I was doing–I’ll never forget it
Reblogged this on Serendipity.
And not just Americans. I think everyone in the world that day remembers where they were, and how they heard it….
I was pregnant, living in Salisbury UK and my husband came rushing in from work and said Kennedy’s been shot, and switched on the wireless. I was about to downplay it, when the daily programme of the Archers, a farming serial was interrupted to tell us that the President had died.. It was 7.20 pm.
You are so right with it impacting the entire world! BTW Are you back online?
No, sweet friend, but still reading my favourite blogs XXX
Just watched the film again. It breaks my heart still.
I cry every time I watch it! So tragic. Makes you wonder how different the world might be had he lived. Good to have you stop by for a little catnip…miss you!
Much love – good friend
