We will always remember exactly where we were on that beautiful Tuesday morning. We were in Nashville with Jan who was having surgery. After dropping her off, we had breakfast at Krispy Kreme, then sat outside to enjoy the fall weather. We headed back into the hospital lobby to find complete silence. Every TV was showing the tragedy, and every eye was glued to the TV. In our upstairs waiting room, several people were panicking because they worked for American Airlines and were frantically trying to contact co-workers and family members. We all sat for hours in that waiting room in stunned silence watching the footage, trying to understand.
We love to be sarcastic and not take things too seriously, but sometimes we need to reflect. Hopefully, everyone will take a moment and remember all the countless lives forever changed because of that one day.
