On this day 17 years ago…

246 people went to sleep in preparation for their morning flights.
2,606 people went to sleep in preparation for work in the morning tomorrow.
343 firefighters went to sleep in preparation for their morning shift.
60 police officers went to sleep in preparation for morning patrol.
8 paramedics went to sleep in preparation for the morning shift of saving lives.

None of them saw past 10:00am Sept 11, 2001.

In one single moment life may never be the same. As you live and enjoy today and tonight, before you go to sleep in preparation for your life tomorrow, kiss the ones you love, snuggle a little tighter, and never take one second of your life for granted.

RIP the victims of the 9/11 attacks.
