It seems like a lifetime ago…how many wars since?…and to what end? Almost unfathomable that this could happen…that men could devise such a plan to hurt others and destroy families and kill hope…but they did it – they made it real and believable for all of us. So immensely tragic and speaks volumes about the worthiness of man to inherit this kingdom…how is it that the will of some men not quenched requires the suffering and oppression of all who would disagree and chose freedom? Tell me the answer to this riddle so that I might understand and trust in the goodness of man and find my faith again…show me how to satisfy the rage and anger so that I might embrace you as my kin…help me find release for my sadness so that I might rest in peace.
2,753 lives perished between 8:46 a.m. and 9:02 a.m. when the planes struck the towers, the time the burning towers stood: 56 minutes and 102 minutes respectively…and the 12 seconds they took to fall.

About Lawrence Lewis
I do a number of things professionally...but most of all and the true purpose of what I do through "my work" is to provide for my family, be a good husband and great father, and try to make a difference as a world citizen...I guess it's not much more complicated than that 🙂
