REMEMBERING

SEPTEMBER 11TH

In memory of

All those who lost someone, and for those who hearts have also felt the pain!

I read this passage on a blog, I came across and thought it was too cool to pass up. So here it is
They wrote: We must never forget what happened that day and remember that the fight is ongoing. Just because we have not had another attack on US soil doesn't mean the threat is over. This Tuesday, sometime between 9:00 AM and 11:00 AM, take a moment to remember those who died. Remember the innocent who had no clue disaster was coming and especially those who died to save us from a final attack in Washington D.C.. While I personally did not lose a family member or friend in the attack I have several coworkers and friends who did and whatever your politics are, in this case, really don't matter to me. All that matters is that those who died 6 years ago did not die in vain and that as we remember them this Tuesday we take up a new resolve to continue to protect this country as best we can from future attack.

WE WILL
NEVER FORGET

Today I saw an eagle,

With a teardrop in his eye.

It literally took my breath away,

To see an eagle cry.

I asked him, What's the matter?,

And he told me what he saw.

A cowardly attack was made,

On the towers that once stood tall.

He said everything he stood for,

Had taken a shocking blow.

So he had to take a moment,

To let his own emotions show.

Then he proudly told me,

That our Nation would survive.

That our Liberty and Freedom,

He'd be sure to keep alive.

He said for us not to be afraid,

To stand together, not apart.

For a terrorist has succeeded,

If he puts fear within our hearts.
