9.11.01 - The World Stood Still

As an eye witness to the horrific attacks on the World Trade Center on September 11, I felt a responsibility and a need to share some of the images, feelings, and thoughts that are forever ingrained in my mind.

All the images that were chosen help tell my story of first hand experiences with the horror and heroism in the first few weeks, the mourning that followed, and the attempt for us all to regain some normalcy.

Nothing entirely captures the magnitude and enormity of the destruction at "Ground Zero." It was not possible to capture the looks on the rescue workers' faces that told a story of their utter desperation and solemn commitment in their search for survivors.

I created this soon after 9.11.2001. Today, six years later, we launch the Power of Peace. Our mission stands in stark contrast to the devastation of that day and the ensuing destruction that followed. I share it now with you as it is speaks to my inspiration and motivation in creating the Power of Peace.

Thanks for posting. I still feel a great sense of loss as I remember 9.11.01. Your song reflects the loss but also reminds me of His grace and the Hope that only he offers.
