Remembering 9-11
It’s been six years. Perhaps the emotions you experienced that day - terror, disbelief, anger - have faded. Perhaps you think that day is a horrible part of our history to be filed away. It’s not. The enemy is reforming and will strike again. The war against evil is now and forever a part of our lives. We must be vigilant. We must use all means to defeat the enemy or he will surely defeat us. That is the nature of war. And make no mistake - we are at war.
We must remember the act of war that brought us here. Take a few moments to watch this video. Do you remember that day? Were you angry? Are you still angry?
We are Americans. We honor our dead and we give aid and comfort to those who have suffered. But then we return to the battlefield to engage and defeat the aggressor. He is still there, plotting, planning to attack again. The war is not over…
Remember those who perished that day. Say a prayer for those who carry on without them. Never forget.

A nice remembrance. I think too many of us forget that 9-11 was an act of war and that the war continues. Well done.
Thanks, we remember.
The entire world shares your feelings and remembers your fallen heroes.
Our prayers go out to all who lost their lives that day and to all those who lost loved ones. God Bless America.
Our prayers and best wishes go out to those who lost loved ones on that terrible day.
My sis was on an early flight out of Philly to go see our mom (who was sick in a hospital in Montana) when the pilot came on to say they had to land due to the horror in NYC. They tried to land in St. Louis but were denied so finally went back and landed in Buffalo. It took my sis 4 days by bus to get home..and I drove from CA. Mom died before either of us could make it home.
It was a horrid day for millions. I'll never forget.
Hi Melly,
Thanks for sharing your story. For you and your sister, each anniversary must bring, along with all the other emotions, a deep disappointment. God bless you both.
