We Will Remember...
Today, I stop and remember those innocent people who lost their lives, the service men and women who worked so hard at the scenes, and the military who still to this day defend our freedom. I think that we take for granted the freedom that we have as a Americans and days like today are a perfect reminder. This morning I was surprised when my brother, Zack, called me. I usually only talk to him late at night due to the time difference. I immediately asked him why he was calling so early and he told me that they had a special ceremony to honor 9/11. We went on chatting for a few minutes and I walked outside, once I got out there Zack immediately said "That is beautiful" and I said "The bird singing" and he said "Yes, I never get to hear that". I was remind of the little things that we take for granted daily. We are truly a blessed nation. To the men and women that serve for us each day whether on the land of the good ole' USA or on foreign soil thank you from the bottom of my heart.
