Thinking of you USA
 
Thinking of you all one year on - our love and hearts go out to you now and always. It's not just today we remember the 3000 who lost their lives but every day since and all those who lost loved ones and friends too.

It's almost 8:46. It's hard to believe how much our lives changed in a few short minutes. A year ago today it was impossible to think what life would be like in the months to come. We literally put our lives on hold as we braced for what was to come. As a nation we suffered from collective shock and then anger. We are different now. With all the news and alerts, we are still bracing ourselves for what may come. Life is different now, too. I've been to NYC in the last year, traveled to Europe, and will continue to do so. Life is different, but ...<BR><BR>Debby<BR><BR>Debby

Doc, of course everyone at the Pentagon and there families and all lives who were so horribly affected that day one year ago. (never mean to slight anyone. Not ever. <BR>

Jenna Sep 11th, 2002 05:19 AM

All of the turbulent emotions I experienced on this day last year has come flooding back. I'm actually finding it hard to concentrate on work, thinking about the stories I've been hearing of the people whose lives were so directly affected by the terrible events. I am humbled to see how wrong I was to think that a year would make much of a difference.

I know exaclty how you feel.(Jenna) It is like last year all over again. We had a beautiful ceremony here at work at 8:46 a.m. Difficult to work, I know. Difficult knowing all the emotional pain of so many today are going through today and everyday. Peace to all.

I need to share this with especially the folks of NYC but didn't know exactly where or how to do so, and this seemed like a good place. I wrote it shortly after 09-11-01.<BR><BR>September 11, 2001 (title)<BR><BR>The world was forever changed that day, in a more threatening and terrible way.<BR>Senseless carnage and mindless strife, snuffed out the precious gift of life.<BR>We welcome and value different roads, but intolerance delivers heavy loads.<BR>And on that terrible indelible autumn day, God's gift of life was swept away.<BR>Daughters and sons, husbands and wives, sent to heaven by hate and knives.<BR>Who's god promotes such carnage and waste? Desires such bitter vile and taste?<BR>Shame on those who worship and embrace, a god that peddles hate and waste.<BR><BR>The world was forever changed that day, in a more threatening and terrible way.<BR>But God has higher callings for all of us; tolerance, forgiveness, love and trust.<BR>Vulgar and evil deeds must never veer our path; our belief in a future devoid of wrath.<BR>We pray for those swept from our lives; the fathers, sons, daughters and wives.<BR>We pray too, for those of us who survive; the fathers, sons, daughters and wives.<BR><BR>"We ask of thee, our chosen God, to accept our lost ones into your loving realm;<BR>And give us the fortitude to rout the evil condemned to earth and now at the helm.<BR><BR>Guide us to thy arms in the brightest of light, and instill in us your mightiest might;<BR>To vanquish evil from mountains and valleys; from public places and darkened alleys;<BR>Strengthen our resolve to conquer evil but still, leave us with benign good will;<BR>Bless our children through each day, as we avow our hope - please guide our way." ...<BR><BR>Thinking of all of you - in Washington, DC, Pennsylvania, and especially New York City. Thanks for listening, and Godspeed.

As a New Yorker I am thankful for all the support I have felt since last year. I want to thank all those who visited our city, especially in the months after the attack. Your messages of support helped.
