Awe-Inspiring, Powerful and Resilient...these
were the words that came to me as I drank in the breathtaking beauty of
Sedona, Arizona on April 12. Less than 72 hours later, on April 15, I
was back in Boston and blindsided by the emotional rollercoaster that
ensued following the Boston Marathon bombings.
As the new normal has
begun to settle into Boston, as it did in the weeks and months following
9/11 in New York City, those same words that resonated with me as I
scanned the magnificent vistas in Sedona, surface as I continue to
witness the amazing ability of the human spirit to bounce back from
adversity; tenacious and strong...Awe-inspiring, Powerful and Resilient.
