It's the anniversary of That Day.
Sep. 11th, 2013 09:43 amTwelve years ago, twenty men decided to take the lives of several thousand people in a most attention-getting way.
Our world has been fucked up ever since, and it's not getting any less fucked up the more we continue to encourage fear, bigotry, violence, and greed.
I don't think things are going to improve until we remember that our first priority as a species is... the preservation of ourselves as a species. Helping each other, loving each other, embracing the differences that make us unique, celebrating the commonalities that make us one.
Today is not a day to keep the flame of vengeance alive.
Today is a day to keep the flame of hope alive.
I love you all.
