On this day, 23 years ago...246 people went to sleep in preparation for their morning flights. 2,606 people went to sleep in preparation for work in the morning. 343 FDNY firefighters went to sleep in preparation for their morning shift. 60 police officers (23 NYPD and 37 PAPD) went to sleep in preparation for their morning patrol. 8 paramedics went to sleep in preparation for their morning shift. Not a single one of them saw past 10:00am on September 11, 2001.
Friends, in one single moment life may never be the same. As you live and enjoy the breaths you take in today and before you go to sleep tonight in preparation for tomorrow, kiss the ones you love, snuggle a little bit tighter, and never take even a second of your life for granted. It really is precious.
