two towers, five years later

Anil, on how we’ve all failed after five years:

“Today, I’m not 100% satisfied with our normal lives. I want the better life I saw from my friends and neighbors for a few brief moments after the worst day of our lives. I grieve not just for all the lives we lost that day, but for the fact that their loss could have helped us all be better, and that it could have inspired us to keep living the way we do at our best.”

  1. I am not quite sure what you are getting at here. Are you saying this large tragedy showed us what was important and now we are caught up in the hoopla again?
