A nation moving on

A lot of things have changed since 9-11: our nation has embarked on a war on terrorism, an evil regime has been toppled and we havedeveloped a Department of Homeland Security to ensure that it doesn’t happen again. Most importantly, we have been able to move on, as a nation and as individuals.Families have begun to put their lives back together after losing those that were so close to them. Their memories will live, as we commit to never let the tragedy and the lives lost be forgotten.Our nation has moved on as well.Our military has gotten stronger, and provenits strengthandwillingness to fight by defeating our enemies.Life has continued day to day and we have all continued to work or go to school.But thememory of what happened and how we felt stays with us. May we never let go of those feelings.The only way that anyone could ever breakus, or our national pride,is if we let them.Todd ScarboroughClass of 2001
