...And the Light Pierced the Heavens
I had a blog here. I erased it. It was nothing more than what's already been said, with far more eloquence, by Keith Olbermann. I will say this though.
Two nights ago, as I drove home from work, I saw in front of me the Empire State Building. Like many other nights, it was lit up in red, white and blue. And off to the south, I could clearly see a beam of light reaching up to the skies. It was overcast, and the light pierced through the clouds, and where they met was a bright glow, brighter than the full moon, almost like the sun peeking through the clouds.

It was a stark reminder of that day, beautiful while melancholy, a quietly bright tribute to those innocents who died.
