September 11th has always been a special date for me – it’s my birthday – but now it has a sickening resonance for everyone.  The last diary entry was dated then, obviously before we heard of the terrible events in America.  I know that a website like this is the last thing on anyone’s mind at the moment, but what happened was so indescribably horrific that  it can’t just be ignored.  At the same time, I have no idea what I can say.   There are no words adequate for a time like this.  If you’re reading this from the States, I hope you know that millions and millions of people like me around the world are thinking of you.  I think we have all been very conscious of our shared humanity since Tuesday.  In a very real sense, what happened then, happened to all of us, no matter who we are, what we do, or where we live.
