Memories of 9/11

'Remembrance'

They fought their own battle, so others would not suffer. They stood up as one,united, and did something that altered the course of history and shed some light on the darkest day. The passengers of United 93 refused to let that plane hit its target. And for that, we remember. To all lost on this day a decade ago from New York, to Washington to Pennsylvania, you are not forgotten nor did you leave us without a purpose. We will avenge, until all is right, but you will never be back here again. So keep looking down, smiling and blessing and we will always look up and in our hearts to thank and remember, from this world to the next. To all of the warriors, who felt as many of us did that day but decided to not let it happen again, we thank and honor you. You are warriors, you are the ones who have been changing history from the beginning, not politics. Your names will go down in history, even if you don't know it. To all of those who looked upon St. Paul's Chapel and prayed from the top floors of the towers, holding on to hope even in the saddest of times, We remember, you kept your faith in a god and we will keep our faith in you. Those at the Pentagon, you took up the call of duty when you stepped foot in that door every morning, to keep us safe and preserve all of the freedoms we live through every second. We remember.

To all who were affected or lost on 9/11, we remember. And we will continue to remember, year by year, month by month, day by day, hour to hour, minute by minute, second to second.

Never Forget. Never Forgive. "Let's Roll."
