And the whole structure would reflect day after day the blue sky and the passing of sometimes dark clouds, an image of life as it is, indeed.
At a certain level in each of the Towers, an immense space, many storeys high, located at the very spot where the planes crashed, would remain empty, sheltered from the open air by front walls of glass, transparent and untinted this time, as opposed to the blue mirror-like glass covering at those levels the rest of the towers.
Those two monumental memorials would home the names of those who died, listed and engraved in the marble of their giant rear walls. Those places would be seen through transparency of glass at day.
At night, they would shine like a lighthouse's beam, a perpetual light guiding us to remembering, so that no one can ever forget.
They would be a separate space of rest and silence from the Towers' bodies, full of life and activity. I believe it would be a correct way to bring together the duty to go on living and the need for silence and prayer in respect of those who went.
Because I believe that their souls are there, with us forever, and they expect us to do justice to what has become Ground Zero, where we must give them a home and a a shelter.
