My heart hurts for the losses others have experienced personally as well as the pain I feel just remembering. Like you, I remember everything from that day. It's just so horrific, I can understand how people feel a need to move away from such a tragic and horrible event and focus on the more positive, less frightening realities. Is it right? Perhaps not, but I do see why some may choose to.Miss French Jessicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13182951176785715056noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36638818.post-75338530445782524062007-09-13T22:11:00.000-05:002007-09-13T22:11:00.000-05:00I so agree with you.

It was "should we pare down on huge 9/11 memorials."<BR/><BR/>Bad enough they would even ask. Horrible that YES was in the lead.<BR/><BR/>We need to remember it. It needs to be memorialized each year.Lara Neveshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08351324888724799014noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36638818.post-62133479429151151412007-09-13T19:42:00.000-05:002007-09-13T19:42:00.000-05:00I vividly remember that day - leaving Kenton at da...I vividly remember that day - leaving Kenton at daycare and going to teach my little class of first graders. So many of them had seen the devastation on tv and were asking so many questions.<BR/><BR/>THe following couple of years we did big service projects at school in honor of Patriot's Day.<BR/><BR/>This year - nothing was even mentioned. <BR/><BR/>I thought your post was right on. We should be remembering. We should be more aware.Debhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14702876813807591022noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36638818.post-2353907486225024882007-09-12T15:35:00.000-05:002007-09-12T15:35:00.000-05:00Very well said Terri.

It would also be hard to believe if I had not have heard the very comments you've stated. Not directed towards me but towards others. We SHOULD remember those that lost their lives on that tragic day and we should never forget why it happened. It has changed America forever. It has shown us the very real serious nature of our enemies. If we were to simply forget we would risk the danger of having something like this or much worse happen again. And I pray that it doesn't.<BR/><BR/>Very good post Terri and God Bless you for posting it.Crishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02796076332054673857noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36638818.post-11374700388734727102007-09-12T11:17:00.000-05:002007-09-12T11:17:00.000-05:00Oh, and I love your pic!

I have a whole pack of Black/white pics from all around our town of the signs, the fire station and random places of people's reactions to 9/11 right after it happened. One of these days...I intend to make an album of them.the real ~Roxann~https://www.blogger.com/profile/08182786221545229324noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36638818.post-3108743424406888442007-09-12T11:16:00.000-05:002007-09-12T11:16:00.000-05:00I have no idea why anyone could be offended by you...I have no idea why anyone could be offended by your thoughts.
