SEPT 11?

God Bless America.

I'll attend a special service at my church Wed. evening.

Ironically, the morning of 9/11, we were getting ready for a funeral for our good friend's father. At the gravesite service I just kept thinking how many times this scenario would be repeating itself. It was and still is hard to imagine all the people who died that day.

I didn't know any of them but they have become a part of all of us, I think it's safe to say.

I was on top of the WTC in August 2001 and vowed to come back to this unique place....
I still cannot come to terms with what happend.
On 9/11 I will play Johannes Brahms "A German Requiem" and will think of all who died and suffered so much.
Love from Germany.

On that fateful day we were one people, no borders.....yes, God bless America,,,,bless us all and the families of all who lost loved ones on 09/11. It will be a quiet, reflective day here in Nova Scotia....everyone I have talked to is thinking of it.....

My parents asked if my girlfriend and I wanted to go to a gathering of sorts with people we dont know.. sort of a public vigil... I didnt feel that that was the way I wanted to pay my respects and remember the tragedy.. I would like to sit at home with candle light and listen to some slow music with my loved ones... I feel that remembering the events of the day , where I was, who I was with.. and appreciating the fact that my friends and family are still in my life is the right thing to do for me. I really dont care to see the terrible pictures of the planes hitting the towers and all the commotion. That has been played out. I prefer to look back on the last year and see how far we have come as a society. Look at personal goals set and met, look at relationships that grew stronger over the year. Try to be better person... and think of the families that have been destroyed as a result of losing a loved on in the attacks. Be thankful for the little things.. We all have to grieve in our own way... there is no right or wrong.
