9/11, Ten Years Later



It's all still pretty fresh, even after ten years and even though an initial burst of civility and patriotism have long given way to cynicism and squabbling and partisanship. Here's hoping today's (and future's) remembrances of the events of 9/11 stir us to something better: a cherishing of life, a reminder of the existence and ultimate conquest of good in the midst of so much evil, and a commitment to double down on service and mercy and love and sacrifice. God bless America and God bless mankind.
