God Bless Chile and the 33 Miners

God bless everyone involved in the rescue, the people of Chile and the 33 miners. This is a truly remarkable example of what can be achieved when people work together for a common cause.

As I watched the events unfold live on TV last night I was moved by the human spirit and the coming together of everyone. The rescue at the San Jose Mine in Chile is an uplifting event that should be an inspiration to us all.

When the first miner Florencio Avalos emerged from the rescue capsule all the anxiety melted away to be replaced with jubilation and the realisation that all the planning had fallen into place. The spirit of the 33 miners will live forever.
