I am not a particularly political person, but, as a Tribeca resident, the commodification of September 11th is offensive to me.

Today is a day to live for those who can't, remember those who were lost, and stand for anything that has fallen.

The planes were hijacked, the buildings fell, and thousands of lives were lost nearly a thousand miles from here. But the attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon were an attack on the heart of America.
And standing here in the heartland of America, we say in one voice

We will not give in to terrorists;

We will not rest until they are found and defeated;

We will win this struggle, not for glory, nor wealth, nor power, but for justice, for freedom, and for peace;

So help us God.

I am happy to know that my husband regards me as a woman and a person.

I am one of the 11.5% of New Yorkers who remain traumatized by the events of September 11.

I mean, I - it's so funny, I am, you know, I am, you know, a working woman out in the world, but I still live with my parents half the time. I've been sort of taking this very long, stuttering period of moving out.
