9.11.01 - We will never forget

On 9.11.01, I watched the first plane hit the North Tower of the World Trade Center and saw unspeakable horrors in the ensuing destruction as well as the six weeks I spent volunteering at Ground Zero. Today I remember and strive for a better world for us and our children.

I created this video soon after 9.11 as I felt a responsibility to never forget. This day also stands as a driving part of my motivation to create the Power of Peace. I wanted to build something that stood in stark contrast to the devastation I witnessed. I believe peace is a right not a privilege. I believe that peace is a mosaic of intertwined victories for basic human rights; of understanding and acceptance of cultural diversity; and a shared global belief that as individuals we are responsible for the world.

The Power of Peace is a place where peace is our only agenda and where we believe we can achieve change one step at a time until there is global momentum. We hope you'll join us and create your own profile page.

In peace,

Sheryl Daija
