Remembering September 11th

This is the end of Americas’ innocence, and a loss in all of our hearts.
With all of our grievings this is where the war starts.

The whole world stopped on the 11th of september.
With all of americas’ victims we always shall remember.
We are a whole nation that is in mourning.
Those who took part in this deplorable act should heed our warning.
We always will remember what happened to the world trade towers.
Those who perpertrated this horror messed with the strongest world powers.
We will not go quietly into that good night.
As for all of us Americans we have to unite.
We can not be pulled apart by our petty differences any longer.
We have to pull together and then that will make us stronger.

-Richard Guignard

I figured it would be appropriate to take the time and write that as it comes around this time yet again, it’s important to stop and remember even if for just a moment those who lost their lives in the horrific attacks eight years ago today. Whether it be at The Pentagon, The World Trade Center or the field in Shanksville, PA… those who lost their lives did not lose them in vein.

Our country was under attack that day by terrorists.. some say the attacks were orchestrated by those within our own government.. others say they were orchestrated by Al Queda. Whoever you believe were the planners, keep those opinions to yourself for today.. for this is not the time or place to discuss those theories.

As 8:46am eastern time rings in just a little over seven hours from this writing, the remembering begins with a service at the site of the World Trade Center in New York City. Bells toll, names are read, stories are recounted, lives are remembered.

Here at EDGE FM, we have a life to remember of our own. My cohost Sal, his brother Chris had passed away in the attack on the Twin Towers on 9/11. So for Chris and the many other lives lost and families affected by the tragedies of that day… we have not forgotten. You are in our thoughts and prayers now and forever.

God bless all of you and our great country as well.
