Not just Americans, but I think a lot of the entire world will always remember 9/11. I remember where I was that day, that moment in time. I was at work and one of our dedicated fleet's drivers brought in the small television from his cab and set it up in the office. The terrible event was numbing and I also remember driving into work for several days after that, even behavior on my highway path was sedate and unmarred by "normal", daily aggressive behaviors. Right? Didn't many of you find that people were nicer. More polite. More kind than usual. We had all been jarred.
May we never forget this time. The bravery of the victims and first responders. The courage and grief of those who lost loved ones. The tireless labor of everyone involved in the medical field, rescuer and searchers, including the canines. All of the helpers, not just at the scene but all over the world who reached out to someone who was hurting or to donate in some way - who prayed or lifted up a caring thought. And may we not forget the survivors and the present victims, who today suffer the pulmonary effects of having been in the area, or cope with missing their co-worker, spouse, or friend.
