Today we remember the lives lost on 9/11 and
honor the heroes who emerged that day and in the following days. In the
horrific scenes that unfolded before the world thirteen years ago, many
heroes worked tirelessly to heal, help, support, love
and give. From devastating loss came an opportunity for strangers to
see beautiful in each other in less than a blink of an eye. In mere
seconds, people who had never met put others' needs in front of their
own; giving everything they could - including shoes off their feet and
the clothes off their back. In the face of a few who did something
incredibly terrible and ugly, millions rose to the occasion and showed
that love is beautiful. That is what I focus on when this day comes
every year, not the ugly, but the millions who honored that life is
beautiful.
And that is where our focus should be. And that is what we should help others see.
