September 11

And despite all the hate the whirls around each country and race, we have constant reminders of goodness and Truth.

And the friendship we have with this Afghan family is one.

Today, (coming home from Seema's and being reminded by Justin) my prayers are lifted up for all of the people missing loved ones. The ones that were lost 9 years ago and the ones that continue to die in the conflict today.

The differences between us and our Afghan friends is great.

Sometimes too great to bear.

But it is how we learn to love one another.
