Almost missed my stop this morning reading the Portraits of Grief page in the NY Times.

In these snapshot portraits I learn more about the people who perished September 11th.

People like Michael G. Jacobs, who was learning to play the bagpipes, Veronique Bowers who named her son Dior after her favourite clothes, and Santos Valentin Jr. who loved his dog, Luger, so much that he would leave the Animal Planet channel on for him when he was not home.

I didn't know any of these people. But I miss them. And - one month later - yes - I am still grieving.
