We were recovering from one hurricane a week ago. Now we are being hit by another. And this is September 11. It is amazing the confluence of events that can happen on any of the three hundred and sixty five days in a year. Going back in time, we can see so many things that happened on so many of them. Every day is special in its own way. Every day has an event to remember. Or many events. What defines us as a culture, a society, and a nation is how we remember them. How we listen to the lessons they teach. How we go forward in the wake of what happened before. Today is September 11, and I remember what came before. And I will always go forward.
