“It was the greatest thing I ever did with my life.”

I’ve started a ritual for September 11th.

I step away from my work and worries to watch the 12-minute documentary BOATLIFT: The Untold Tale of 9/11 Resilience. If you have a moment, I’d love for you to join me.

People do awful things. This is true. But I believe the critical lesson from September 11th (which is backed up by compelling evidence) is that even in the face of horrendous tragedy, the vast majority of people are civil – and many are heroes.

Most people are good.
