Twenty-one years ago.
I remember it clearly as if it were just yesterday.
I am not going to relive that nightmare moment when my world changed forever.
I choose not to allow the monsters from that moment to overshadow the depths of compassion and courage exhibited by those who rushed to rescue the victims in that moment of absolute evil.
The courage to survive and to rise above is what I remember most from that day.
I choose to remember the goodness of the human heart; I choose to remember that God is in control and that goodness will never be defeated no matter how much evil attempts to destroy it.
How could we ever forget?
How could we ever forget that humanity is decent and kind and that evil will be defeated; that God holds each of his children in the palm of his hands?
Yes, evil tried to terrorize us, but we should not fear, we should not be afraid.
This is God’s world.
God bless the U.S.A.
