If we’re not careful, “Never Forget” can become nothing more than a cliché. It helps to remember, ponder, and meditate on what it is exactly that we aren’t forgetting.
First, we must remember the thousands of responders and civilians we lost that day—the friends, family, and coworkers who never came back home.
Second, we remember that we live in a much bigger world than we sometimes realize; peace here does not equate to peace everywhere.
Third, we vow not to forget that evil forces, no matter how they are clothed, seek to do us harm regardless of our intentions.
It is our job not just to ponder, but to take action. Whether it’s getting involved in our local government, joining an emergency service, or simply voting, it is imperative that we all do our part to ensure that one of the greatest countries on earth remains that way through diligence, dedication, and devotion to God, and to country.
It is only then, we can truly say, “We will never forget."
