So that's my wish for you, and all of us, and my wish for myself. Make New Mistakes. Make glorious, amazing mistakes. Make mistakes nobody's ever made before. Don't freeze, don't stop, don't worry that it isn't good enough, or it isn't perfect, whatever it is: art, or love, or work, or family or life. Whatever it is you're scared of doing, do it. Make your mistakes, next year and forever." Neil Gaiman

Remembering September 11
Today makes ten years since September 11, 2001. While I haven't (and won't) watched any of the many tv programs on the subject, it is hard not to remember what happened that day. The live video of the towers collapsing is etched in my memory along with President Kennedy's death and the Challenger explosion. The act of men who hate my country and cloak it in terms of religion. I grieve for those who were lost, knowing that their families will never be the same. I hurt for the survivors who must feel some "survivors guilt" along with great gratitude. I will never forget.
