Mike Posted September 11, 2004 Report Share Posted September 11, 2004 It's now September 11th. in New York City! The memories of the horrible events of 3 years ago ring out in historical clarity - September eleventh was filled with the sounds of destruction and loss. Then came the silence. The little boy who listens in vain for the loving calls of his mommy. The little girl who will never again fall asleep to a bedtime story from her daddy. The husband whose heart aches for the soft whispers of his wife. The mother who would give anything to hear just one more "I love you, Mom," from her son. Cherish those you love because the silence is indeed deafening. Remember, your family first. A Prayer For The World Let the rain come and wash away the ancient grudges, the bitter hatreds held and nurtured over generations. Let the rain wash away the memory of the hurt, the neglect. Then let the sun come out and fill the sky with rainbows. Let the warmth of the sun heal us wherever we are broken. Let it burn away the fog so that we can see each other clearly. So that we can see beyond labels, beyond accents, gender or skin color. Let the warmth and brightness of the sun melt our selfishness. So that we can share the joys and feel the sorrows of our neighbors. And let the light of the sun be so strong that we will see all people as our neighbors. Let the earth, nourished by rain, bring forth flowers to surround us with beauty. And let the mountains teach our hearts to reach upward to heaven. Amen. Please visit this site!

Catherine Posted September 11, 2004 Report Share Posted September 11, 2004 It angers and saddens me to see all those names and faces! We must never forget 'who', 'what', 'where', 'when' and 'how'; there is no 'why' -- it was senseless! While so many lost their lives at the actions of extremist lunatics, what makes me most furious is to see babies on that list. Thoughts and prayers to ALL families of ALL victims!

_Annabelle_ Posted September 11, 2004 Report Share Posted September 11, 2004 Same here. The people of the United States and the victims, and their families, of that senseless tragedy have my deepest sympathies, support and prayers. Btw, that's a beautiful prayer PinkFloyd, very touching. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken Posted September 11, 2004 Report Share Posted September 11, 2004 Same here. It doesn't matter where you live on the globe, anyone with a heart was horrified with what happened on this day. Whoever was responsible for 9/11 did absolutely nothing for their 'cause'. What they did was wholesale mass murder. Ken. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catherine Posted September 11, 2004 Report Share Posted September 11, 2004 anyone with a heart was horrified with what happened on this day Ken, you made a simple every day statement, yet it was so poignant! You have no idea how much you said in one little sentence. It serves as a stark reminder -- the soulless that murdered innocent people, the heartless that celebrated our tragedy, and the mindless that said we got what we deserved!

Aunt_Acid Posted September 12, 2004 Report Share Posted September 12, 2004 A family friend of ours was in the second tower when it got hit. He asked somebody what happened, and people were telling everybody to stay calm and go back to work, but he didn't listen and he ran down the stairs and got out. Thank God he did that, or he might not be alive today. Here is another site: 911 Attack Memorial Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
