Remembering those lost on 9/11, 2001

It was almost surreal watching fighter planes doing CAP over my house, instead of the usual commercial traffic. And the eerie quiet, as well not only from lack of airport noise but from lack of traffic in general. It was almost like America was holding her breath, waiting for something else to happen.

We lost a lot that day, Adam. Our innocence, our cocky self-assuredness, but we will never lose two things. Our resolve, and our sense of justice.
