I didn't personally know anyone in the WTC that fateful day. I don't live in NYC and never have. I keep thinking that, as the years pass, I will be able to think of that day without crying. Hasn't happened yet. I can still remember the feeling I had when the first tower collapsed. I am also still amazed that more people didn't die that day.
I continue to prayer for all the families and friends of those that were lost in the WTC, the Pentagon,and the field in Pennsylvania. I am thankful for the first responders and service people - both that day and those that serve us today. I mourn the loss of innocence from that day and pray that the world finds a way to get along, accepting other's differences and helping those that are exploited.
Thank you, Duke74, for your annual post.
