Remembering Nine Eleven

Nine ElevenThere’s two things my Pastor, Jim Brashear does every Sunday. One he prays, by name, for every soldier that is connected in any way to our local church, who is currently in the military fighting the war on terror. He also prays for the families who have been touched in a profound way, by experiencing the loss of a loved one from the terrorist attacks that occurred on 9/11 at the World Trade Center, The Pentagon, and the heroes of Flight 93, who charged the terrorist causing the plane to crash in a field in Pennsylvania, instead of its likely target, The White House.

When creating this post, I had started out with just gathering pictures of that tragic day, and the more pictures I found, the more tears welled up in my eyes as I thought it has only been five years and I have forgotten so many of these images that was once seared into my eternal consciousness. The pictures of ash covered people, walking around in a surreal daze. The pictures of people fleeing in terror of the crumbling buildings. The pictures of lost loved ones that went up all over lower Manhattan, placed there by loved ones who kissed them goodbye that morning, forever.

I felt posting pictures to my blog just doesn’t do it justice. So I created a small multimedia presentation, with images of that fateful day. I hope in some very small way, the memory of those lost will live on. While the images I used reflect the horror that was visited upon Manhattan that day, lets us also remember the victims, family and friends of the terrorist attacks on The Pentagon and Flight 93. And my we never forget what occurred on that horrific day, Nine Eleven.
