Columbia Wellness Remembers

Today marks the solemn anniversary of the events of September 11, 2001. We remember and will never forget. The impact was felt deeply, and our lives were forever changed.

We remember.

Most of us witnessed the towers being struck and falling to the ground. The images are just as vivid in our minds 22 years later.

We remember.

When Flight 93 went down in rural Pennsylvania, we recall the heroes that exclaimed “Let’s Roll!”, as they tried to regain control of the flight. Lastly, we will never forget the final plane as it flew to our Nation’s Capital and struck the Pentagon.

We remember.

We will never forget the senseless loss of life and the emotional toll it took on us. Shock, sadness, fear, vulnerability, and anger. All seemed lost.

We remember.

Many will also recall our Nation coming together as one. Political differences were swept aside, and we rallied in support of our Nation. We were United as one and we were proud of our Nation.

We remember.

For those of us old enough to remember, 9/11 it is impossible to forget. Remember the First Responders. Remember the victims and their families. Today we honor and remember those that were lost.
