15 years ago I was eating breakfast with my mom when the towers were struck, I still went to school that day, but all we really did each period was watch the news in utter disbelief.
15 years ago I was a freshman in high school, the vast majority of this year's freshman class will learn about the events of September 11th as actual HISTORY. As in, they weren't born yet when this historic day took place.
15 years of an empty place at the dinner table and a hole in the hearts of people who lost a loved one that day.
15 years and the war is still going on.
15 years worth of deployments and some brave men and women only returning to their families in caskets draped by a flag. The American Flag.
15 years ago our country stood united...
15 years later - I feel as though we are more divided than ever.
For today, can we please stand as "One Nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all." That is my prayer.
