Remembering 9-11 Victims

I lost track of time between traveling and running errands. I am still adjusting back and shame on me -- I forgot what day it was! I turned on the TV to break the morning silence of my apartment and out flowed the endless list of 9-11 victims. Their families calling up their names, paying their respect and reminding us of the day the whole world changed. One girl leaned into the microphone, said a name and called him "my amazing brother." Her world changed on that fateful day in an undescribable way... You could sense the rawness of her pain in those simple words. No matter how or if this war on terror ends - what does it matter? Her amazing brother is gone.
