My name is Brian Sims and this blog is my second. I deleted my other out of stupidity. It's a collection of thoughts and a way to connect with people.
I'm a musician.

Ten Years Later: A Tribute 9/11

My favorite 9/11 tribute in New York City can be found in Bryant Park. 2,819 empty chairs on the lawn facing the site where the World Trade Center once stood, one chair for every life lost. The number of empty chairs captures the enormity of the lives lost and the stark emptiness of it just drives home the point that I hope is never forgotten.
2,819 people were here one moment and gone the next. 2,819 went to work or boarded a plane one morning ten years ago thinking it would be another ordinary day and they never came home.
