Today is not a day to talk about your boyfriend and how sweet he is, it's not a day to complain about your classes because they are too hard, it's not a day for any of that, today is a day to remember what our country went through 11 years ago. Today is to remember all the children whose parents never came home, all the parents that sat in horror and watched the Towers fall, knowing their child was inside. Today is for the husbands that had to tell their child that, no, mommy's not coming home. For the wives that could only hold their toddlers and cry. Today is for the ones that flinch when they hear bagpipes, for those who can't stand to hear the 21 gun salute.
Today is for remembering.
09/11/2001. Never forget, never forgive.
