Thank you so much. I agree in prayer for the families of lost loved ones from the tragedy that came to this country. I pray for peace on Earth and goodwill toward all.

I pray for the families of the ones that lost loved ones as well.. but I'm wondering how many of these people do not want to be reminded as it's all over the television stations and newspapers...

It touches my heart that folks from around the world want to "comfort" our nation on this day. I am sure for some who lost loved ones it is a great day of sadness, but I am equally sure that for many others it is a day of comfort when a nation as a whole stops to honor those "fallen brothers."

Times of impact: 8:46 a.m. and 9:02 a.m. Time the burning towers stood: 56 minutes and 102 minutes. Time they took to fall: 12 seconds. 2819 dead from 115 different nations. 343 Fireman/paramedics, 23 NYPD, 37 Port Authority officers.
It was a horrifying day for the United States and it's people, But it struck the entire world. My heart soul and prayers go out to all.
I hate war, But I am glad we have gotten as many high ranking terrorists as we have so people around this world can sleep better.
My Heart Just breaks and my prayers are said quite often when it comes across the news.
The pride so many of the families have in the ones they lost is amazing and the way they tell the stories of what their loved ones did for us on that day breaks your heart. They are so proud,
PRAY FOR PEACE

What a beautiful National Anthem sung this morning by the Brooklyn Youth Choir at the 9/11 ceremony in New York. It was so moving and performed so wonderfully. Absolutely lovely.

I just read about the organizations the victim's surviving family members have created with the money they got from the disaster. I am amazed and humbled by what they have done and heartened that we are still a nation of givers even after suffering such great loss at the hands of terrorists. I salute them all and wish them peace.
