My three favorite songs from the American Heroes Tribute were:

"Everyday" by Dave Matthews- This song reminds us that we all deserve love and are all required to love others everyday. We have to love others regardless of their gender, religion, or nationality. This was especially important after 9/11 because not only was it a call to love our fellow Americans, but to reach out to the international community for support as well.

"Livin' On A Prayer" by Bon Jovi I have always loved this song. It reminds us that by hanging on to what we have, whether it's a lot or a little, the important part is the community we are a part of. As long as the prayer we say has the intention of benefit for others, it's a prayer worth saying.

"My City of Ruins" by Bruce Springsteen I like this song because it reminds us that although our plans and lives can be destroyed, we can always have the hope to rebuild and move on with the help of others.
