“... you promised you’d never forget, but here we are, nearly 20 years later, on our way to forgetting.”

I remember.
I will always remember.
And I will remind you.
9/11 was the day that I grew up, the day that changed my life forever. I am who I am because of that day.
My memory of 9/11 jumps forward to 9/12, the morning after.
That morning, I woke up to sunshine on my face. It all seemed like a bad dream. I opened my window, anticipating a crisp September morning air.
I breathed in.
My heart sank.
I smelled 9/11. townhall.com/columnists/mar…
I lived on Staten Island. Our firefighters were very close to downtown Manhattan. Many responded to the fires in the twin towers. They never came home.
1/4 firefighters that died on 9/11 were from Staten Island.
Entire firehouses later closed. firehouse.com/historical-inc…
