SwissAir disaster - 09/04/98 05:25 PM
The tragic SwissAir plane crash has focused the world's attention on the tiny fishing village of Peggy's Cove, Nova Scotia.
There's an image being shown in almost all the news reports on TV---an image that seems to provide the only sense of calm and strength in the midst of the grief and the frantic search for victims and clues.
Peggy's Cove Lighthouse.
Once again, I find myself in awe of these sentinals and their ability to communicate tranquility.
I wonder how many people---however subtlely or subliminally---were somehow comforted by the image of Peggy's Cove Lighthouse as they tried to make some kind of sense out of the tragedy.
