Let's also try and remember how everyone came together to help their fellow man (and woman) that day. For a short period of time race, religion, lifestyle, political choice, nationality, clothing choice came second to the fact that our fellow global citizens needed help. From the emergency response professionals and citizens that came to the aide of others at the sites of the attacks, to the friends and families that comforted each other in far away cities and countries waiting to hear news of a loved one's fate, to people that opened their homes to travellers stranded far from home due to the airport closures, and to the people that sat in shared awe of the shocking events that effected us all.
Let's remember that humanity's worst examples brought out humanity's best examples and that even in fear, shock, and sadness that people stuck together and made sure the person beside them was also ok.
