Happy Day

Dein glücklicher Tag

روزتان شاد.

We always remember you and pray for you.

I will always carry you in my heart.

24 years ago, on a perfectly normal evening, 246 people went to sleep, full of anticipation for their flight the next morning.
2,606 people lay down to rest, ready to go to work, like every day.
343 firefighters fell asleep, knowing they would save lives the next morning.
60 police officers closed their eyes, ready to ensure safety the next day.
8 paramedics went to sleep, ready to be there if help was needed.
None of them knew they wouldn't survive the morning of September 11, 2001.
In a single moment, everything can change. The things we take for granted—our plans, our habits, the people we love—can be taken away from us. Forever.
So: Hug the people you care about. Tell them how much you love them today. Kiss them, hold them tight, move a little closer as they sleep peacefully next to you.
Because none of us knows if there will be a tomorrow.
Don't take a second of your life for granted. And even less the people by your side. Because one day it could be the last time you see, kiss, or hug someone.

Damals war ein 100-D-Mark-Schein ein kleiner Schatz im Portemonnaie. Damit konnte man den Kühlschrank füllen, volltanken, essen gehen oder sich einen besonderen Wunsch erfüllen.
