17. I'm not a big fan of cemeteries or memorial parks
Edited on Mon Oct-13-03 08:27 AM by Padraig18
The best memorial to the 3000 martyred souls at Ground Zero would be to resolve to pick ourselves up and rebuild; a simple, dignified and appropriate memorial area incorporated into the site in no way dishonors the memory of those who perished.

Life is for the living, and we must go on. The dead are not comforted by our tears, nor do they hear our cries of outrage. Stepping confidently and resolutely into the future is the best 'memorial' they can have.
