Tomorrow is September 11th (also known as Patriot Day). It is a day that still stings on the soul of many people, both in the United States and around the world. It is the anniversary of an event that changed the course of the world. It is a day that shall never be forgotten.
Both Barack Obama and John McCain have called a cease to their campaigns in honor of the 2,974 people that died horrifically that day. Both men, along with other dignitaries, will be making a trip to the site of the Twin Towers in NYC to mark the seventh anniversary of the attacks on U.S. citizens. In addition, they will cease all campaign advertising in a sign of unity for the country as we were on that fateful day.
Please remember to pause tomorrow and remember those that died and for their family members that were left behind to carry on their story. Be it New York City, the Pentagon, a field in Shanksville, or in your heart – the stories of these victims will live on as long as we take the time to remember them. May their souls rest easy knowing that they are not forgotten.
