Today is September 11, 2025. That means 24 years have passed since that awful day that we said we would never forget. It has been 24 years since the horrors of that day caused so many of our citizens to set aside their differences to do what was right and to unite under one flag. There was no room for partisan politics.
We were Americans.
I hope to someday see our country that united and committed to a singular cause and in circumstances less tragic. A few years ago I wrote a story about the Flight 93 Memorial. I encourage you to read it and to think about my words. Click here.
I so hoped that tragedy would bring and keep us together, but in the end we are farther apart than we’ve ever been in my lifetime.
Sigh. And getting worse every day.
People have forgotten what it means to be Americans before R’s and D’s.
It’s hard to believe that it’s already been 24 years. I still remember exactly where I was when the news broke about 9/11.
I remember it like yesterday. So awful.
