September 11

I've posted two reactions to September 11 in the two-plus years I've had this blog. Both posts apply as much as they did when I wrote them.

I used to ask why we commemorate tragic days like September 11, 2001. Isn't moving on from tragedy a good thing? I've come to realize how remembering helps us move on. No single day since 2001 gives me as much pause as this one, and I hope it always will.
