What separates us from animals?

Jack’s Winning Words 9/11/13
“What separates us from animals…is to mourn people we’ve never met.”  (David Levithan)  Last Sunday, 60 Minutes had a segment about the 9/11 Museum in NYC, set to open next year.  An interactive display will allow visitors to see pictures of each of the almost 3000 victims.  None who died are known to me, but I’m sure that I’d shed a tear, seeing their faces.  These hymn words have meaning:  “We share our mutual woes, our mutual burdens bear, and often for each other flows, the sympathizing tear.”    :-(  Jack
