10 Years Later

I think a lot about time; how it keeps marching on strong and steady. And while it marches on, things change, people change - the world changes. But amid that change we must take the time to reflect upon the past; to remember experiences and thoughts and emotions.

Yesterday, Donald and I explained to our children [who were not yet born] about the happenings of September 11, 2001 and how dreadful and terrible it was. And - more importantly - we taught them about the greatness of our country, about the blessing that freedom is, and about the responsibility we have to protect it.

[A new monument was unveiled - it is made from remnants of the World Trade Center.]




[Balloons were released - one for each life lost that day.]



God bless
America.
