Where were you on 9/11?

It’s hard to believe that it has been 20 years since that horrific day. A day etched into our hearts and minds. A day that forever changed the world.

With this significant anniversary upon us, it was important to me to spend some time at the World Trade Center and the Reflecting Pools while I was in NYC. To pay my respects. To regain perspective. To remember.

I can’t begin to imagine what that September day was like (and has been like in the 20 years since) for both the survivors and the families of those who lost their lives. Yet, we are all connected by the impact of that day. And our collective story needs to be keep alive so that the world will indeed never forget.
