Remembering 911 --- 7 Years Later





Image ……….. Image


On Thursday is the seventh Anniversary that our country was savagely attacked and the united hearts of our nation cried out in pain.. Here are a few pix that I chose out of the more than 1200 I have on file. Feel free to post your pix, your memories, where you were and what you were doing “that day” and perhaps how this has impacted your life.

WTC tribute ~ with Enya music

Anyone ever wonder what the lyrics are to Enya's "Only Time"
that is played in the background of some 9/11 memorials online,
such as in this excellent tribute(above) :


Who can say where the road goes
Where the day flows, only time
And who can say if your love grows
As your heart chose, only time

Who can say why your heart sighs
As your love flies, only time
And who can say why your heart cries
When your love lies, only time

Who can say when the roads meet
That love might be in your heart
And who can say when the day sleeps
If the night keeps all your heart
Night keeps all your heart

Who can say if your love grows
As your heart chose
- Only time
And who can say where the road goes
Where the day flows, only time

Who knows? Only time

THE STAIRWELL....

Image

You say you will never forget where you were when
you heard the news On September 11, 2001.
Neither will I.

I was on the 110th floor in a smoke filled room
with a man who called his wife to say 'Go od-Bye.' I
held his fingers steady as he dialed. I gave him the
peace to say, 'Honey, I am not going to make it, but it
is OK..I am ready to go.'

I was with his wife when he called as she fed
breakfast to their children. I held her up as she
tried to understand his words and as she realized
he wasn't coming home that night.

I was in the stairwell of the 23rd floor when a
woman cried out to Me for help. 'I have been
knocking on the door of your heart for 50 years!' I said.
'Of course I will show you the way home - only
believe in Me now.'

I was at the base of the building with the Priest
ministering to the injured and devastated souls.
I took him home to tend to his Flock in Heaven. He
heard my voice and answered.

I was on all four of those planes, in every seat,
with every prayer. I was with the crew as they
were overtaken. I was in the very hearts of the
believers there, comforting and assuring them that their
faith has saved them.

I was in Texas , Virginia , California , Michigan , Afghanistan .
I was standing next to you when you heard the terrible news.
Did you sense Me?

I want you to know that I saw every face. I knew
every name - though not all know Me. Some met Me
for the first time on the 86th floor.

Some sought Me with their last breath.
Some couldn't hear Me calling to them through the
smoke and flames; 'Come to Me... this way... take
my hand.' Some chose, for the final time, to ignore Me.
But, I was there.

I did not place you in the Tower that day. You
may not know why, but I do. However, if you were
;there in that explosive moment in time, would you have
reached for Me?

Sept. 11, 2001, was not the end of the journey
for you . But someday your journey will end. And I
will be there for you as well. Seek Me now while I may
be found. Then, at any moment, you know you are
'ready to go.'

I will be in the stairwell of your final moments.

Meek - I unpacked a CD full of photos that I collected shortly after 9/11. I put them at -

http://www.rc4systems.net/911

I don't often break out these photos. But when I do, I clean my weapons and solemnly vow to up hold my oath to uphold and defend...against enemies, foreign and domestic. The last time I checked, none of us remitted that oath just because we're not on the payroll anymore!

I'll leave the photos and videos up for a couple of weeks.

Thank you for providing that file. Incredibly, it streamed just fine through my dialup onto a machine that has ActiveX and javascript disabled so I can’t play flash movies; QuickTime is unsupported as well.

Fantastic file for those whose whose machine is too old and balky for mpegs.

Deb, send me that picture via email and maybe I can get rid of a little of the graininess and improve the clarity/contrast. The composition is great. Be happy to try.

A level of destruction that left survivors unable to recognise the remains of their loved ones, and hundreds of volunteer medical personnel who rushed to staff area ERs were left milling about aimlessly with no victims to save.

Oh, yeah.

Saying this through gritted teeth: I remember.

This picture is a little old. There are now others.

This picture isn't old. It is time immemorial. And there might be others, but Karl is our own, dude ♥
