I had never seen more confused looks on faces as that day. And about 3 days later, I found out about someone I knew someone who was in the plane headed to San Francisco that went down in PA. I later heard of more folks who perished that were friends and family of many of my friends from the area. <br /><br />We will never forget and pray that something like this never happens again. John Lennon's plea from 1969 in his song "Give Peace a Chance" is still a strong statement that I hope comes true in our lifetimes.

Many of his neighbors did not come home that night...nor any night afterwards. Remember the overwhelming sadness at the thought of the children who would never know a world pre-9.11.... Now eleven years later I worry that children will grow up and never know what happened that Tuesday in September 2001. We must never forget.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
