love heals

This is truly spectacular. These two women lost their sons on 9/11... But in very different ways. One learned her that her son perished when the World Trade Centers fell. One learned that her son was one of the men responsible for that fall.

There is a crucial lesson to be learned here - whether it is a lesson of God, of fate, of karma or of humanity - and the lesson is simply this:

FORGIVENESS IS GREATER. 

PEACE IS GREATER.

LOVE IS GREATER. 

I implore you to take ten minutes and watch these women speak for a TED Talk.

There is extreme grace in this world, if only we seek it. 

"if you're going through hell, keep going"

Well, if you need to read about a miracle, start here. This sweet little four month old baby girl was found alive in the midst of chaos and reunited with her parents, both of whom survived the devastation in Japan.

It makes my heart smile.
