9/11


My cousin Austin is currently living in New York and he sent us this photo today. Pretty incredible. I will never forget where I was at Dowling Catholic High School when I found out about the attack on the World Trade Center. I don't think I 100% understood what was happening on that day ten years ago and to this day, it is so hard for me to comprehend why someone would have so much hate in their body to want to commit such an act of violence.
I promise to never forget what happened on the tragic day in 2001. My heart continues to break for the families of those who lost a loved one. I hope to never take for granted that I am blessed to be an American (not something I always think about) and as a result of this tragic day, I am trying to become a more thankful and peaceful person. I hope you will do the same. Together we can make this world a better place... hopefully one where people don't feel compelled to kill one another.
