9/11

Can you hear the voices? The voices of all those who were lost to us on September 11th, 2001. I think for a moment in time their pain must have screamed through the universe before they were forever silenced. Men, women and children. Innocent lives. Just people on their way to work, or flying off to see their families or in their final moments saying good-bye into a cell phone to their loved ones.

I sat in my family room that day in shock and filled with horror. What these terrorists did was not spectacular or wonderful. It was sick, and cowardly.

I called all my family that day to make sure they were alright. I cried.

Please go here to learn more about this day. I wrote a longer entry last year for the 5th anniversary of this terrible day. I can’t believe that another year has gone by us.

I hope that, like Pearl Harbor, we never forget all who died for their country, on September 11, 2001 or in the war against terror, since then.

  1. I remember it like yesterday…2001 was year of goodbyes for me.

    Mom & Dad took their last trip together; they were in VA when it happened, at one of Dad’s WWII reunions.

  2. Who could forget that? It’s sad to even imagine the lives of the people involved (died) and the families they left..but what’s more devastating is the conspiracy theories that abound.

  3. I was surprised that this year so few Bloggers remembered this day although if it hadn’t happened I am sure no soldiers or civilians would die in Irak today.
    I think you missed my “Compiled News” or maybe you had no time.

  4. I have that day etched in my memory, as it impacted not only myself and my work, but others all around me.

    I posted my recollection of that day.

    ~Peace to all those families who lost loved ones, peace to our nation.
