Mommy what is 9/11? Um..

One day he will ask what is 9/11? I don't yet how I will answer but I know one day I will tell Phoenix about the darkness of the world, I'll be honest and not sugarcoat it. I will tell him that mankind has hurt people, animals and the world. There is hatred and selfishness and it's horrible. I will also tell him that the world is great, life is great and the land is breathtakingly beautiful and there is compassion and trust and love among us, and I will tell him sadly but honestly that unexpected terrible things happen sometimes in this world which is why each day is special and to be careful with himself and others. Tomorrow is not promised and today is a gift. Use it and do it with love.
