I cannot begin to compose words even remotely suitable for the immensity of this anniversary. Even my most eloquent phrasings ring woefully hollow in remembrance of the agony, the numbness, the terror, and, yes, even the wonder of those first few hours, as the world watched a new era ushered in with fire, dust, and twisted steel. TheThousand.net returns tomorrow. Until then, I leave the expression of my thoughts in the hands of One far more capable than myself. God Bless America.

"Godly sorrow brings repentance that leads to salvation and leaves no regret, but worldly sorrow brings death." II Corinthians 7:10
"Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things." Philippians 4:6-8
You said it. All of it.
