Together Today

Almost every blog post I've come across today was about 9/11. People talking about why it still matters. Remembering where they were when they first found out. Remembering those who were taken. Just remembering.

To me, there is something beautiful about how such a horrible event somehow managed to unite everyone is some small way. Sure, everyone had their own perspective, their own experience, but there was still a little current of commonality, community, running through them.

And while I can't quite put my finger on why, that comforts me. Sometimes its nice to feel that there are still a few things in which we're all together.
