I remember I had recently graduated from high school and was home alone having some breakfast watching t.v. and I couldn’t believe my eyes. My parents had gone out of town and I immediately called them. I didn’t know why that was happening.
All I know is that the world is full of hatred and we are the only ones with the power to change it. Love is the answer. You may think that no harm comes from that little racist joke you tell, or commenting on someone’s weight, but it does. It just spews more hatred into the world. We are born clean. Everything we know today we were taught. Let’s leave a legacy of love and acceptance to our children. Today we honor the 2,977 lives lost on that tragic day.
We thank those who sacrificed their lives so that others may live.
May We Never Forget
