7 years but still I will never forget!

I am sure if your like me this is a day that you will never forget the rest of your life. It doesn't seem to get much coverage on Sept 11th as it did the first year or so after it happenned. But many times today I thought about the people just like me, like my co-workers, my friends, family, who went to work like they did every day, but then never came home. Or the ones who had to fly to visit family or for business or fun, but never it made it to their destination because Fate stepped in. So I know that I for one will remember them and the heroes who tried to help and the soldiers who went off to war to try to stop this horrible nightmare from happening to our Country ever again.
Here is a great website that I found too that The September 11th digital archieves. Take a moment and browse through it. I did and found that I felt like I did when it happened and I don't ever won't to forget that feeling, it was hell, but nothing compared to what millions of others went through that day. So to feel some hell today for them is not a bad thing.
God Bless America!!!!!

I don't think any of us will ever forget that tragic day, no matter what country we live in. Hard to believe it's been 7 years ago already, it's still so fresh in my heart. xoxo

I didn't know about the World Trade Center Towers, for some reason it never really clicked that those two hugh buildings were anything more than just how New York builds high buildings.
I think sometimes we walk through life with blinders on until someone shocks us into reality...it's kinds like gas....no one really cares about where it comes from or where it is going until they can't aford to fill their tank..then all of a sudden we are shocked.
No, I will never forget 9/11
and pay more attention to what is going on in the world. I felt like we were asleep at the wheel...
