Never Forget

9-11 will go down in infamy for at least our generation, if not those to come - a date marked by tragedy and grief; of destruction and chaos; of hatred and cowardice; but also of heroism, strength, unity, love, and patriotism. We remember those who lost their lives and honor those who gave their lives, but towards those who attacked us 10 years ago, we still give the rally cry "we will NEVER FORGET!"

For most of us, September 11th marked a turning point in our lives for one reason or another. Some of us lost loved ones, others changed the course of their lives by joining the military or changing their occupation or college degree (I fall into that last category). We were all affected in some way... What is your story? People have a tendency to ask "where were you?" I'd rather know, how did it change you? your world? life as you know it? Will you never forget? Why?
