As we watched with dismay, the events of 9/11, I just want to say that, today, we all remember ,with you, our prayers and thoughts were with you, we wept for you and today we still remember with you. May God Bless America and all who dwell on her soil.

and for those who lost loved ones.-

They shall not grow old, as we that are left grow old;

Age shall not weary them of the years condemn them;

At the going down of the sun and in the morning;
"WE WILL REMEMBER THEM"

I am with you as you pray for the souls who went to work, but never came home that day. I am with you, grieving for so many who are very ill with the dust from the mess. It goes on and on with them, and I suspect they do not get one red cent from all that money that was collected. At the time, I seriously questioned making survivors rich from the tragedy, and perhaps I still question the wisdom. But, it remains a very sad day when so many lost their lives for a few lunatic's actions...and lunatics they were, and still are. Terroroism is alive and well today, and unless each of us keeps our eyes and ears open full well, it will happen again. Here is the place where each and everyone of us is responsible to notice what goes on around us. something very strange? Report it immediately. Perhaps it will save lives. We all must be on alert, 24/7 in this day and age. I am not promoting neuroses, but reality. And, I profile in my mind, regardless of what the courts say...if it looks like a duck, if it quacks like a duck, if it walks like a duck, I do not believe it may be a cow. such is the presentation our courts elect to follow. I am about to boil over as i walk down this line, so I will sign off with PEACE to the world, and more importantly, LOVE to all my neighbors in life. Goldwing. AND it would seem that the events of 9/11 have overshadowed equally tragic events in the US....I feel sorry for the families of the victimes of OK City...they lost just as NYC lost, yet their grief seems to be forgotten....like yesterday's new...not fair...their lives were changed just as much as those in NYC, and yet they did not reiceive millions in exhange for their loves, their fathers and mothers....this is NOT equality in any justification.

I liken this to our attack on Pearl Harbor, of course I wasn't here then, but it was an affront to our freedom, and of course the many lives that were lost then and on 9/11. My hearts go out to those who died a terrible death. Those in the buildings,
our first responders, Fire, police, transit workers, and other bystanders. To all their family's who had to pick up their lives and go on after this tragedy. No we will never forget, and no one should. In fact it is seared in my mine like it was yesterday. To all those who now suffer due to the effects of the dust and debris, while helping perform rescue and clean up. Let's hope they get the medical help they need, and that the Government does not once again F---- (pardon my French) around. Step up and take responsibility. May God bless all those that passed and those left behind on that day.

We will always remember them, the first responders, the police, firemen, construction workers who retrieved the people and all the people in those buildings who perished that day and those who have long term illnesses because of it. We will remember those who died on those flights, in buildings We Willl thank the passengers of flight 93 for aborting the attempt on the White House, we wil always love and cherish the sons and daughters , our troops, who so valiantly fight this war, those who lost their lives, those who came back safely, those who comeback to us injured and pray that the ones over there will come back to us.

For Goldwing: American Red Cross is STILL paying for treatment for those families that need mental health and will continue to do so, ;millions and millions of dollars have all been distributed including funds for funeral expenses, identifying DNA by tiny fragments of flesh, each time, the family was notified and a memorial service was arranged. Since I was at Ground Zero, I can tell you that, we don't make an ISSUE out if it

I remember that terrible day. I was working in a high school
class for special needs students. They could not understand what was happening. A relative of mine who worked in the World Trade Center fortunately was late that day, but lost half of the company's work force and his best friend. He went to six funerals in two weeks.

We will never forget those brave people of Flight 93 and
all the others who lost their lives.

God Bless America

Any man's death diminishes me
because I am invoved in Mankind
And therefore never send to know for
whom the bell toll, it tolls for thee.

John Donne (1624)


This is the way the world ends,
Not with a bang but a whimper

T. S. Eliot (1925)

I have summoned you by name:
you are mine.
When you pass through the waters,
I will be with you...
They will not sweep over you,
because i love you.

Isaiah 43:4

For you have a new life.
It was not passed on to you from your parents:
For the life they gave will fade away.
This new one will last forever,
for it comes from Christ,Gods everlasting message.

1 Peter 1:23

At the risk of alienating everyone here I want to say what saddens me the most about 9/11 is how it has changed the spirit of America, making the majority of people suspicious of everyone who isnt American, white and Christian.

It hurts me to see the tensions it has created between Canada and the US, and other countries.

It hurts me to see every major holiday come with a terrrorist warning.

It hurts me to see elderly people pulled out of security lines in the airports and subjected to secondary inspections, wandering around bewildered and confused with no shoes on, not knowing what to do, where to go because they have missed their flights. Why?

The woman I saw was in her 80's, she was scared, crying, confused, wandering from one person to another asking "why me?" "what can I do?" in the San Fransisco airport.

It saddens me to see what it has done to the independent spirit of America, the loss of freedoms, the loss of privacy.

I have a page on my website for the Fire Fighters and others who lost their lives, for those who survived and showed unbelievable heroism.

I contacted the NY Fire Dept to tell them what an impression it made on me to see them running towards what everyone else was running away from, they sent me their poetry, their paintings, their pictures to put on my site.

And it will be there forever, in memory of all those brave men and women who faced the horror that day, those who survived and those who didnt.

They will never be forgotten.
