How can I forget watching friends of mine worry about loved ones.
How can I forget watching students I worked with get ready for a funeral of a fellow students father.
How can I forget waiting in line at a donation center to drop off water, and Gatorade for rescue workers.
How can I forget seeing firefighters I worked with talk about friends they lost.
How can I forget seeing the homemade memorials, and signs around Ground Zero, made by children who lost parents, aunts, uncles, and grandparents.
I can't forget and nor do I want to. We should never forget, as soon as we forget we leave ourself open for it to happen again.
