The images are stark. Twin towers of steel seemingly indestructible suddenly in tatters. Today’s news teems with heartbreaking stories, tales of courage and valor, and photos from a decade ago that still have the ability to shock. No smoke and mirrors. Only smoke.
Our lives are made up of towers as well, some of which have crumbled with ...
