After 10 years....

I made the choice yesterday to not post anything for 9/11 as a symbol of those who lost their lives. The following days after the attacks happened were some of the most profound in this country's history!! My view on it though amounted something so simple... The days afterward brought home the realization to many hundreds of people that their family members had been silenced that day because of a select few that deemed themselves judge and jury for almost 3,000 innocent men, women, and children!! This is why I choose to stay silent, those that perished had their voices silenced forever in this life but they will ALWAYS live in the next and in the heart & minds of the families they left behind. They will also live forever in the eyes of a country that banded together to show that WE WILL NEVER BE BROUGHT DOWN by bullies!! I am including what I posted on Facebook yesterday and that is all I am going to say.....

Posted 9/11/11 on Facebook in Remembrance 

Today very simply NEVER FORGET!! Don't let those that were murdered or GAVE their lives and sacrificed so much fall in to obscurity just because you can't take a little time each day to remember why they are no longer here with their families & friends. 9/11 was not the first time we were hit but it was the first time civilians were the targets on US soil. Since then the world has changed in so many ways that have impacted ALL lives in our GREAT nation but WE STILL STAND!! There is NO one person or nation that can destroy what has been created in the name of FREEDOM!! We may look from the outside as a nation falling apart, we may look from the outside as a weak nation, we may look from the outside as greedy or only out for ourselves as individuals but LET SOMEONE TRY TO BULLY US, MESS WITH OUR OWN, OR STEP FOOT IN OUR HOME AND THREATEN US AND WE WILL BAND TOGETHER AND FIGHT TILL THE VERY END AS ONE.... ONE NATION UNDER GOD, INDIVISIBLE, WITH LIBERTY AND JUSTICE FOR ALL!!!!!!!!!
