Maggie's Place

Once upon an October 2001, we sat at breakfast in the Boston Airport. We were humbled and distressed that we may be sitting in the same seats as the victims of 9/11. As we watched the National Guard with their guns walk through the terminal, we reflected on that day a month ago and how life for all of us changed forever. Maybe because of where we were and where we had been, we contemplated our life and our future. We had spent the weekend with Joan Anderson at her woman’s retreat in Cape Cod. Both of us had read her book, A Year By the Sea, and were reflecting the way the seminar and the book had impacted us.
