Blog 4

 Remember; to recall to the mind with effort; think of again.
                    to keep (someone) in mind as worthy of consideration and recognition.

That is what I did yesterday, as well as many many others across the country and world did. Yesterday marked the tenth anniversary of 9/11. As I was watching the memorial yesterday morning on TV I saw all kinds of different faces and people. All were grieving at ground zero, the place where this tragic, terrible event happened. I cannot even begin to imagine how loved ones felt on that day. To look at there faces and see the sadness in there eyes because someone they knew and loved was taken from them to soon; that is a face I hope I never have to encounter for myself or anyone else that I know or love. These people that I saw yesterday showed amazing courage and strength, and I am sure that whom ever they are missing, those people or person would be so proud of them in that moment.
It is never fair to see a an innocent life, or in this case innocents lives taken from them without there will. I don't know how someone can justify doing what they did that day.
Nearly 3 000 lives were taken that day. Yesterday we thought of them and what their lives would have been like today. Who would they be? A husband, wife, dad, mom, uncle, aunt, son, daughter, cousin, grandfather, grandmother, brother, sister, or friend? When I think of that, I think of there loved ones and how they feel on a day like yesterday. I also think about my family though, and even though we fight sometimes and are sometimes maybe to harsh on each other I think about what my life would be without them, and I can't even imagine. So in memory of that horrible day I hope that everyone else out there also took a moment to remember the courageous people who died on that day fighting to help the victims of the attack. Think about there families that have to live everyday without them, and think about your own family and be so grateful for the life that you have. Live your life everyday to the fullest extent that you can. Love the people in your life everyday. Pray for the people who need help.
<3 RIP
