On this day… 24 years (September 10th) 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. 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. None of them saw past 10:00 a.m., Sept 11, 2001. In one single moment, life may never be the same. As you live and enjoy the breaths you take 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.” There's something undeniably enchanting about September—the way the world starts to slow down, the air turns crisp, and the landscape transforms into a vibrant tapestry of reds, oranges, and yellows. It's the month that ushers in cozy sweaters, warm mugs of tea, and the irresistible pull of all things autumn. Happy Labor Day to the workers of every field! The world runs on your contributions and you all deserve respect, recognition, and a day to relax. We hope you have a great one!
