[nabs] reflections on tragedy

[Sara Conrad]

Isn't it amazing how our world changed in just a few hours ten years ago? I recall sitting in my fifthgrade art class just after the first plane hit. We saw live coverage of the second. Amazing how it feels so long ago and yet so close to our hearts. I thank God for the men and woman who fight to keep us safe, and certainly those who lost their lives. Blessings to all on this day of remembrance. While we have much to grieve and fear, we also have a freedom that we must celebrate.
