Strength and Resolve

Hello, I hope your doing well today. I couldn't help but feel the significance of beam #1271 as it was placed on top of One World Trade Center on Monday, making it officially the tallest building in New York City. It is more than just a building, it is symbolic of America's strength and resolve to overcome the devastation of 9/11. Living only a 5 hour drive from New York City, I regret never having visited the Twin Towers. So someday when this site is completed, I am going to make the trip to see the rebirth of this city. A simple, yet profound moment in time it was on Monday, as well as an example for all of us to live by.
Thanks for visiting,
Janet

  2. People never see the beauty of many things until they lose those things.

    1. So true Petro, most people don't know what they have until it's gone. I am determined to go see this when it is completed. Hopefully I'll still be blogging and I'll share some pictures with all of you,
      thanks,
