If only 10 people loved each of the 2,976 killed on 9/11, there are at least 29,760 broken hearts among us. What would those 2,976 people have accomplished in the world, and in their families’ lives? What would their offspring have done for society? Will the survivors and those who helped clean up the rubble ever be the same? How much has hate grown since 9/11? How many of our freedoms have we relinquished? How many of our soldiers have we sacrificed?
THIS is the true cost of September 11th.
Nice post. Add to those numbers all of the American hearts broken that day as we watched the murderous attack on our nation.
