“What would Vincent do? In the days since the terrorist attacks I have been asking the question “What would Vincent do?”(As we approach the anniversary of 9/11 someone has asked me to repost the reflection I offered last year…)

Is there something I can find in the writings of Vincent which will give guidance in this world forever changed by the actions of terrorists? A part of me is doubtful because I think that Vincent never faced terrorism, at least of the magnitude we have faced.

But then it occured to me that while Vincent never faced the spectacle of passenger planes used as a missles, he was someone who instinctively knew how to attack root causes.
