• Just my 2 cents worth..

  

  There's nothing I can say that hasn't been said. I'm sure I echo many others' feelings today.
  All I can say is, I really will not forget, I can promise you that. Not in an anger, lets go kill type of way,
  but a deep felt sadness, an invisible fog that hangs over the Country each year on this day, the thousands of lives lost, and for what?
  Seems it was for nothing, doesn't it? Death is death. No matter what the circumstances.
  Yet deaths like those 11 years ago today seem to out weigh others by a long shot. I think what strikes the truth within,
  and hits the very core of humanity (whether American or not) is the senseless, cowardly act that it was.

  No reason, just pure evil. Killing so many who were innocent,
  and oblivious to the 'political' or 'religious' thoughts of those
  diabolic humans who conspired & carried out the mass murders of #9/11/01. 

  
  I still light a candle on this day, and I will every year until I draw my last breath.
  What saddens me is, how quickly people were to 'forget',
  to resume normality was essential, I understand that.
  However, the #patriotism, the "Brotherhood" and Unity seen in the aftermath was *powerful* and so moving,
  I'm positive I am not the only one who was covered in goosebumps from the power of love felt from around the World.
  Where is it now? That's what has been forgotten.
  Yet that is *key* to our survival, our #Nation, is it not?
  If you were on the outside looking in on #America, how would you view us now, compared to then?
  Amazing difference, isn't it? Patriotism shouldn't be a passing phase, a passing trend that's no longer cool, or runs out of style.
  It should be the core of every American, always.
  Don't just remember the Deaths on that day,
  Remember they were people that represented all walks of life, all Nationalities and Religions.

  If they were alive today, what do you think they'd want?
