“Never forget” is what is imprinted on our minds, but I don’t know one person who watched 09-11-2001 & has forgotten. Every year is as painful as the first day, but I am choosing to think differently this year. 25 years later. I am choosing to remember people like you & me that made a difference. That show me that we are resilient, courageous, and kind even when we might not make it. I have chosen to read the stories of true heroes that “loved their neighbor & strangers” Inspiring stories of fire fighters coming home from long shifts & returning to help their squad. 343 never made it out. 911 operators who helped victims stay calm while they knew they were dying and still giving them hope. Police officers putting their lives in harms way with only the thought of how many civilians can they save. 60 didn’t return home. 2606 women & men from many different countries in the WTC who bonded together & helped each other knowing they may not make it. They didn’t. A fire fighter who was golfing & learned his sister was in the WTC & he ran 2 miles so he could save her. She came out, he didn’t. A guy who worked at the WTC who put on his red bandana over his mouth & helped many people out without a thought about himself. They made it out. He didn’t. Countless stories of bravery & losing one’s life for another are found on 9-11-2001. Those are who I want to become. Every face in this picture - Those are who I will remember ✨❤️🇺🇸
