I’m going to go off the normal subject we blog about here on NN. On the ten-year anniversary of 9/11 I felt we needed to remember those that lost their lives.
This is not meant to be a debate or to bring up all the arguments about this tragic day. It is strictly to remember those that were lost. So please no comments on conspiracy theories etc. And Please no political views. I don't want this blog to turn into a political argument. Thanks.
This is a sad day for many that lost people in this catastrophic event. So lets be mindful of the impact this had on so many lives. This is a very emotional blog for me so please bare with me on this one. It still rips at my soul.

It is amazing that it has been ten years, it seems like it happened yesterday. It is so fresh in my brain and I think it always will be. You just can’t forget something like that or at least I can’t. The images still haunt me when I see them. I remember exactly where I was when it happened.
Going about my business and preparing for another long workday. It was a normal morning but it turned into one of the worst mornings in American History. I had no clue that something so earth shattering would happen within minutes of arriving at work.
I received a call from a hysterical client saying she wouldn’t be able to come in for her appointment. Her voice shook and she sobbed. I asked what was wrong and she proceeded to tell me the most shocking and terrible story about the unforeseen attach on one of the Twin Towers. Immediately I ran to the back of the clinic and turned on the radio. My fellow employees and I sat and listened as the grime tale played its self out. By the time we turned the radio on the other Tower was hit.
I remember the shock, thinking this can’t be happening. So many things raced through my mind. What was going on? What would happen next? I remember wondering if anyone was safe, my kids, my family. Needless to say we closed and went home that day.
Watching the news and all the events playing out and all that lose of life I sat and cried. My heart broke for all the people directly or indirectly involved in this senseless violence. I didn't lose anyone in this tragic event but the sadness still haunts me when I see the footage. It never gets easier. My heart goes out to the families of the innocent and the heros of 9/11.

Where were you Sept. 11, 2001 at 8:52 am? Do you remember? Did you lose someone on this tragic day? If so please feel free to share. That is what this blog is all about, remembering those we lost.
I stare in total disbelief,
heart torn with instant grief.
Plumes of black smoke fill the air,
marking a building no longer there.
I close my eyes, I want to pray,
but my mind doesn't know what to say.
Much like Pearl harbor, so many years ago,
so many gone with one fatal blow.
There are no words to explain,
there are no words to ease the pain.
To those who gave their lives,
Mothers, Fathers, Husbands and Wives,
to all who's lives today did cease,
may your soul find instant peace.
We will honor you and the life you gave,
as a Patriot of "The Land of the Free and the Home of the Brave."
