We had a T.V. in the lobby/waiting room and I remember walking into the room and seeing the first plane hit. Those of us watching were still trying to absorb what had just happened, when the second tower was hit...live on the news. One of the ladies waiting was a news reporter and she had to cancel her appointment and rush off.

The office was near the Toronto Pearson airport and it was a low-rise, but as the president was talking, his back to the window, a plane appeared to be heading straight for us.

We each find our place within that pattern. The firemen and officers who responded - those, to me, are part of good, the ones who restore the balance so all may walk in beauty. They're as necessary as the air we breathe.

The evil continues to take such a toll on our bravest and brightest. But thank heaven there are always good men and women standing ready to answer the call.
