Hi all,
We all have varying views on how to address safety and security. But
somehow, some way, those terrorists got through.
We were attacked a decade ago.
I was finishing a class in high school when I heard the news. School
was closed the next day. Our school had an assembly where the choir,
band, and other groups performed to commemorate 9/11.
I hope that we all take a moment to reflect on it. I will be praying
for our country and everyone’s safety/security on the anniversary.
I’m a Christian so I have faith that we will grow stronger as a
nation. If you had a loved one impacted by the attack, I hope you
recovered somewhat from the tragedy.
Some pray in churches, others are going to public memorials today and
still others will do volunteer service to serve the country. If you
are doing anything different or special, I hope it goes well for you.
Take care.
Ashley

"The real problem of blindness is not the loss of eyesight. The real
problem is the misunderstanding and lack of education that exists. If
a blind person has the proper training and opportunity, blindness can
be reduced to a mere physical nuissence." -- Kenneth Jernigan
