September 11, 2001 is a day forever etched in our hearts & minds.
There is so much to say, so little of it
seems right for the somber occasion. On that sunny morning 11 years
ago, I rushed to work, ignoring the horrible sight of the first tower
billowing smoke across the Hudson River. I came home much, much later
on the ferry & looked in horror at the heavy smoke where the towers
had stood tall just hours ago. The Twin Towers were gone. Loved ones were forever
lost, including 57 of my Hoboken neighbors. My heart was broken. The world had changed.
Hope & resilience persevere.
I bow my head in remembrance.
