9-11 = NEVER FORGET

It's hard to believe that September 11 happened 15 years ago!

I still remember getting a phone call to turn the TV on because things were happening.  I remember turning on the TV just as the second plane hit the second tower in NYC.  I remember dropping my TV remote.  I still can't believe, to this day, that something so dramatic happened on American soil.  

I am so thankful for my best friend, Cassie, who came over and spent the day watching crappy movies, eating pizza, and keeping me distracted because I was a WRECK.

Now, 15 years later, this day will always hold a spot in my heart.  It breaks me every time I think about it.  How many people lost their lives.  All because of some terrorists who thought they were right.  

Frankly,  I don't give a shit about most of the shit that happens.  Politics and all that jazz will never matter to me, EVER.  Just the way I was raised.  But when something so dramatic happens, it's hard to turn a blind eye.  

So here's to all the amazing people who lost their lives trying to save those in the world trade center, and all the other places that were affected that day.  Here's to all the civilians who lost their lives.  To all the rescue people who suffered for years before dying because of the things they were exposed to.  And to those who still survive today.  My heart goes out to you!

Thank you for all you did!

Lets make the most of our days.  We never know what tomorrow may bring.
