An Inspirational Message on 9/11 from Brian Germain
From Brian Germain, a skydiver, author, motivational speaker, and friend.
We are bound in our journey;
from fear into fearless compassion.
Let us not contract into a shadowy version of who we could be,
but expand outward into unlimited possibility.
We must let go of the trauma
and return to a state of peace.
Only then will we win the war against terror
that wages within our hearts.
We can put out the fire.
Brian expressed it quite eloquently up there.
Perhaps I’d add one thing - Not as poingnant, but just as meaningful:
"Be excellent to each other." Bill S. Preston, Esq. (Bill and Ted’s Excellent Adventure)
We’re all we got, guys. Tell someone you love them today, and call someone you haven’t spoken to in a while. Also - Visit Ike Pigott’s blog about what you should have prepared for the next emergency. Then do it.
Some more inspiration for you to remember that there’s so much beauty in the world, if we let ourselves see it.

When I saw the first line, I had a Billy Thorpe flashback:
“‘People of the Earth, can you hear me?’
Came a voice from the sky on that magical night
And in the colors of a thousand sunsets
They traveled to the world on a silvery light”
It’s “Children of the Sun”, and it’s before your time, youngster.
Thanks for the link to my plea for preparedness. I owe you…
