911_Anniversary

It was a year ago that many innocent lives were lost September 11, 2001 when terrorists flew planes into the World Trade Center in NYC, the Pentagon and the plane that crashed in Pennsylvania. America mourned and the rest of the world mourned with us, uniting us all as one in the fight to stop terrorism. To the families and loved ones of the victims who parished that day, you are still in my thoughts and prayers, we will never forget.

"And I Will Light A Candle For You" "And I will light a candle for you "to shatter all the darkness and bless the times we knew. "Like a beacon in the night "the flame will burn bright and guide us on our way. "Oh, today I will light a candle for you. "The seasons come and go, and I'm weary from the change. "I keep moving on, you know it's not the same. "And when I'm walking all alone "do you hear me call your name? "Do you hear me sing the songs we used to sing? "You filled my life with wonder, touched me with surprises, "always saw that something special deep within your eyes. "And through good times and the bad, "we carried on with pride. And I will light a candle for you "to shatter all the darkness and bless the times we knew. "Like a beacon in the night. "The flame will burn bright and guide us on our way. "Oh, today I will light a candle for you. "~~Author Unknown~~

A DIFFERENT CALLING
This year the "Memorial" has changed It's different than those past A different kind of war From a different, "stone cast".
The battle is at Freedom's doorstep With heroes of a different kind Now, all of us are "Soldiers" Against, the terrorists "sick" mind.
Civilians have always been A part of every war But, in this day and age We must do, so much more.
If we expect to win this Battle We must all join hands In a strong, determined circle With, Freedom lovers from all lands.
This world has changed forever "The American Way" There's so much more at stake Than, the way we live and play.
Since 9-11 we're learning The horrors of this world Can even come to where Freedoms Flag is, unfurled.
This day was meant to Honor All, Military Heroes have endured Now, we all could join their Ranks If our resolve, is not assured.
So, let us all take a moment To respect all those, "Fallen" And vow, we're all up to the task Of this, different "Calling".
