Time heals all wounds I’ve heard many say. Given some time all the hurt goes away.
Has time not reinforced what we came to believe when our nation wracked with pain had no time to grieve?

Have the images so chilling and all too vivid, remained clear only to those the murderous acts benefited.
I want us to remember what happened and why. A vicious attack on our homeland that we can’t deny.
It seems the further we get from the man-made catastrophe, the more we succumb to borderline apathy.

I’ll hope that each one of us takes a moment of silence today and vows to never again be evil men’s prey.
We cared for burn victims and buried those we lost. Babies born fatherless have suffered the cost.

Fill the day with kindness, love, and remembrance.
