On this day, 23 years ago, our nation faced an unimaginable tragedy that forever changed the course of history. We pause to honor the memory of the nearly 3,000 innocent lives lost in the September 11th attacks, from the citizens going about their day to the brave first responders who made the ultimate sacrifice in service to others. Their courage and heroism remain etched in our hearts. Today, we also pay tribute to the countless survivors, families, and communities still impacted by that tragic day. The resilience and strength they’ve shown serve as a testament to the unbreakable spirit of our nation. As we reflect on the significance of this day, let us come together in unity, remembering the values that connect us all—compassion, courage, and hope. May we continue to work towards a future that reflects the best of humanity and honors those we lost by striving for peace and understanding in all that we do. (Photo credit: Getty | F.T.
