The day will come when we check our morning calendars for today or draft an email and give little to no immediate thought to the date in front of us or its historical significance.

Already, this newest generation has moved on to other critical issues and incidents which have formed their own 23 years of life and are likely to affect their next 23 and beyond.

It happens.

The pace of events and changing news cycles is dizzying these days and few are able to keep track of both history and present.

It will be left to a generation of elders who are quickly passing on and into oblivion themselves.

But the day will come when America forgets to mourn and a sad morning that will be when there are no more tears and never forget is forgotten.
