As I unwind this evening, I’m caught up in the memories of 9/11, the norm for me at this time of year.
I could rattle off stats. How many people were killed that day. How many citizens, flight crew, first responders, and more.
But what’s most poignant is how many people were as we are right now – unwinding, planning for tomorrow, or sleeping soundly. Not one planned to die the next day. Not one could foresee the horrific events to come that would change our lives forever.
Never forget.
Appreciate each moment in life. Tell your people how much you love them. Don’t wait to do something special – today is reason enough. Be grateful for every day and take nothing for granted.
We don’t know what tomorrow will bring. And tonight, as I ready to close this day, I think of each one of those individuals who sat as I am right now, not knowing their lives would be cut short the next day.
Never forget. Never forget. Never forget.
