This morning, I walked past the Garden of Remembrance for Massachusetts victims of 9/11, as the Mayor was preparing to lay a wreath and the bells of the Arlington Street Church down the block pealed out in memory.
(You may recall that the planes that stuck the Twin Towers took off from Boston's Logan Airport.)
The Garden is a lovely spot, but it strikes me that the best memorial for all of those who suffered on 9/11 and after as a result of what happened six years ago today would not be names chiseled in granite, but a day when people no longer feel that they are justified in seeking to redress their grievances by making war on others, especially civilians.
