It was touching to drive the streets of Bountiful today. I thought about how much time has gone by since the day it happened. It was a changing, defining moment in my life. The phrase "live life to the fullest" became a reality and had meaning. I fully learned what it meant to be an American and what my grandparents fought for in WWII.
It was humbling to take a quiet moment and simply, remember. Remembering my favorite city and the summer before that moment. Remembering where I was when it happened. Remembering the heartache and the healing that would eventually come. Remembering that all of us, together are still a strong country. The key is to simply, remember.
