life goes on



A memorial in downtown Manhattan not far from Ground Zero displays special artwork in remembrance of 9/11.  Tiles donated by local factories serve as canvases on which NYC children have worked with local artists to express their thoughts and feelings about the tragic day none of us can ever forget.  


Carly Moffitt sends in these photos of New York City and
 the site of Ground Zero. 
"It's eerie to be at the exact spot which at one point was center stage to terrible devastation and chaos.  And yet it's a beautiful summertime day in the NYC.  In every direction you can see and hear construction, tourists, taxi's and just movement in general.  In one moment you realize that life is so fragile and hanging by a thread, and then in the next moment you see people like these cycling by without a second thought.  It's at times like these you realize that no matter the circumstance life does go on..."

Alicia Keys shows us a softer side of New York City.
