It is more blessed to give than to receive.’”Acts 20:35

 

As I look back on the events of September 11th, 2001…

 

I Remember the shock

I Remember the grief and trauma;

I Remember the confusion and the unthinkable destruction.

But I also Remember so many people coming TOGETHER, all walks of life coming TOGETHER, everything else was set aside, to assist, to help, to listen, to cry, to hold up, to carry, to grieve, and to love those who were in the midst of all of the devastation and despair.

I marveled as the days passed and I watched strangers helping strangers in their time of need, I remember, how nice, how kind and how caring, concerned and empathetic they were.

I Remember the bravery and courage;

I Remember the COMPASSION…

I Remember the LOVE

Remember…

We need each other… we can’t do it alone…

REMEMBERING those who were lost, and those who were left behind to grieve, to heal and rebuild their lives….
