September 11, 2001 was a turning point in our inner and outer lives; opening a doorway for us to walk through while carrying our great inner light as a torch of healing for all humanity.

I see this sculpture by A. A. Dumonte 1833, Le Louvre, Paris, France, as a reminder:

* The star as a symbol of divine wisdom;
* The flaming torch our ever-burning heart of caring love;
* The wings as the energy of God that lifts us into consciousness of the intertwining of divine love and wisdom within that we can use in daily life by our attitude and desire to act for the highest resolve at all times.

The doorway we came through, this turning point in reality, is an impetus to step up our efforts of caring love and meditation for world peace.

With the advent of the internet we have been able to communicate with many who feel that caring and kindness is what heals the heart of man; the heart of humankind.

Let us join hands along the internet lines, while holding all now present on earth, and those who have come and gone, in our healing thoughts of warmth and love.

And, with those with whom we interact daily, may we give the best of ourselves, our caring selves(Selves).
