The 9/11 Memorial, A Pilgrimage Of A Different Kind
If for the two thousand nine hundred
and eighty three unfortunate souls their lives were tragically robbed on 9 /11
in the cruelest way, God has bestowed the kindest of mercies in death. For each
one of them, there can’t be a more serene and happier place to rest than the
wonderful memorial built for them.
In God’s wisdom, the 9/11 memorial has
turned out to be a most beautiful place where the departed souls will rest in
eternal peace, yet always be in the company of their loved ones and millions of
others from future generations who will stroll by, sharing the same love,
compassion and heroism they have come to uphold in their death.
Conceptually, the memorial is
nearly perfect, preserving the sanctity of ground zero for eternity and the
hopes and aspirations of the lives, which were never really lost, in the gentle
streams of water flowing down the walls of the massive ponds ever reminding the
immensity of the tragedy that happened. The memorial has certainly achieved
everything described in the words of its President Joe Daniels and much more:
“Our mission is twofold: to create a Memorial at the
very site of the attacks, where people will come to honor those who died on
September 11 and reflect on the compassion and humanity evidenced in the
aftermath of the attack, and to create a Memorial Museum where people will not
only examine “what happened” on 9/11, but also the questions of “why” and “what
does this mean for our future?”
Collectively, the Memorial & Museum will remind us
of the powerful and binding connection we share with one another. A connection
that eclipses politics, race, economic class, and geography.”
What makes the 9/11 memorial unique and even more special is
the manner in which the names are engraved in marble, in a way everyone can
physically touch them, kiss them and embrace them, which in fact make a huge
difference .
The power of this simple but unique architectural feature
rendering natural ways to communicate with the lost ones possible was evident during the memorial ceremony not only
for the loved ones of the departed but also for millions around the world who
watched sharing the same feelings, with tears swelling in their eyes, with each
name being read out.
The great men and women who conceived the memorial certainly
understood the needs and aspirations of the people who lost their lives more
than anyone else, which were reflected in the commemoration speech of President
Obama.
"Decades from now, Americans will visit the memorials to those who were lost on 9/11. They will run their fingers over the places where the names of those we loved are carved into marble and stone, and they may wonder at the lives they led.
And they
will know that nothing can break the will of a truly United States of America
Over time, the
9/11 memorial will no doubt become a centre of pilgrimage of a different type, a rare heart rending and touching experience,
the meaning of which will take years and generations to fully understand and
appreciate.
