A Wonderful World- Remembering 9-11-01 « Speak Without Interruption
Excerpt: [Fine.] h/t Books, Inq....
The heroes and victims who perished that day live in our souls, crying out to be
remembered. “The colors of the rainbow are so pretty in the sky, are also on the
faces of the people going by…and I think to myself, what a wonderful world…”
Remember them each and every day. Remember the families without sons and
daughters, mothers and fathers, aunts and uncles. Remember who they are and who they
could have been. Remember, they are us. If you have forgotten, take a minute to look
into the sky and you will see them passing by and think to yourself what a
wonderful world it could have been.
