a day of remembrance

today marks the anniversary of a tragic event. an airplane loaded with passengers headed for the Dominican Republic met an extremely ill fate and crashed almost immediately after take-off.

if memory serves me correctly, the majority of these passengers were heading home, or going to various family re-unions. for whatever else is going on today, or any other day, make the most of the time you have with those closest to you, as you never really know how much time is left.

sorry for the downer, but this seemed appropriate for mentioning.

Thanks for the written reminder Rob. We can all use one of those periodically as we get caught up in the business of life and forget how fragile it really is..... That particular crash was mentioned on our news last night.

That link was very poignant Rob, considering those very same firefighters had also lost 343 of their brothers 61 days earlier in the horrific act of terrorism on 9-11-01. Yet, they still responded, even when off duty, which speaks well for the sense of dedication and call to duty that all of our Nation's hero's seem to carry within them. Again, thanks my friend ;=)
