World Trade Center Site and St. Paul's Chapel
Words do not adequately describe the emotions that visits to these sites evoke. It is incomprehensible why fellow human beings would want to wreak the destruction and havoc that September 11th, 2001 brought. However it also brought with it acts of great heroism. Will there ever come a day when the people of the world can live in peace and freedom?
