For Americans, today is a day of remembrance for the lives lost and the humanity -and inhumanity,

that was displayed by so many.

In looking back at that time, we remember the compassion, bravery and overall kindness that was brought about by such a disaster. But we also got a glimpse of the inhumanity, vindictiveness, hatred and bigotry which such a moment can bring: Much of which we are still experiencing.

As this is a day of mourning, and remembrance; I encourage us all to reflect on how we can address the left over hatred and anger by dedicating ourselves to continue working for each other, to serve our communities and honor the memories of those victims with extensive kindness and love. To give hope to those still overcome by the destitution of such times, and to remind ourselves that despite the evils that exist in the world: we can still choose the forces of love an kindness over those of hate and revenge.
