10 years have past and many things has happened in my life over those years
There is a lot of things I remember and a lot of things I've forgotten.
Just like everyone else I will never! forget where I was and the horrer, the fear, the wonder of "what's going on?" This has left a painful mark in all of our lives but the unity, the patriotism made us stronger as individuals and as a nation
Let us never forget all of those who lost their lives ten years ago and let's always remember the true heros of this nation. The army, navy, airforce and coast guards, The fireman and women, the police men and women and the EMS who put their lives on the line. Not only for that day but every day of our lives.
God Bless America!
I was curious to see what I had wrote on my first 9-11 here on bloop.
I am glad I saved it, I don’t remember everything in here.
September 11th, 2003
I want to take this time to remember the people who passed away.
I personally don't know anyone
as all of you do, I remember that day very well.
it was very hard for me. it was like a really bad dream.
I remember getting an email from my dad and he told me that there was a plane that went into one of the twin tower buildings and to turn on channel 7. I did and a few moments later, the second tower was hit.
I was crushed, but the strange thing, when I totally lost touch with reality when they said they closed down Disney world, I was like they can't do that, that is the place for fun. that is where everything good happens nothing can shut down Disney. that shouldn't be allowed.
Than I got a few phone calls from my friends asking if I was alright and I wasn't. but it was nice to hear from each and every one of my friends. you really do find out who your friends are in hard times and it was nice to hear from my 7 friends my 4 close friends and my 3 not so close friends.
I know this is dumb to say, but what really affected me as well, was no baseball. I had nowhere to drown my sorrals and hurts. than when they canceled baseball for three days at first and eventually 6 days, I was glued to the news cause there was nowhere else to go nothing else to do.
*my twin brother was sent home from work and my mom was home soon after that from where ever she was. my dad is the emergency management director for a city so he called a few times to make sure we were all ok but he couldnt leave work*
My brother brought me into his room that night and told me to watch a movie, so we watched a Disney movie that I had not seen, but that didn't help too much.
that Friday, the 15th, we went to go see this baseball movie, I wanted to go see it anyways but the movie, it was good for me. once I got to hear baseballs being hit off of bats again I just smiled, that is my favorite sound in the entire world.
this movie "hard ball" is about a white business man who gambles and he lost a lot of money and someone told him that if he were to coach a little league team he could get 500 a wk. so he excepted knowing it would be easy money. He saw where the park was, and it was in the ghetto’s of Chicago, he was like I am not so sure about this but he needed the money, he went only to find a group of black kids. they had a little scuffle and coach had to step in, by the end of the little meeting where the guy introduced the coach to the kids, with all the swearing and fighting he didn't want to do this job. but the guy promised him the money.
the kids play and practice and the kids have trouble in school so coach had to go to the school and talk to the teacher otherwise the kids would not be able to play cause their grades weren't good enough. he helps the kids with school work. they go through the little league season and if you want to know what else happens you will have to see it. it is a funny sometime serious. There is one point in the movie which will make anyone cry it is so emotional. but all around it is my favorite movie of all time.
for three hrs that day I didn't think of what happend four days prier. it was great.
pease and love to everyone who did lose someone.
my thoughts and prayers go out to you and them and their family.
*A special thank you, to the men and women who put their lives on the line every day to pretect us all, far and near to give us the rights which you and I have.
Fire people, police people, emergency management people
Those in the army, navie, air force, national guard, coast guard and the reserves
Thank you

If tomorrow all the things were gone I'd worked for all my life
And I had to start again With just my children and my wife
I'd thank my lucky stars To be living here today
'Cause the flag still stands for freedom And they can't take that away
And I'm proud to be an American Where at least I know I'm free
And I won't forget the men who died Who gave that right to me
And I gladly stand up next to you
And defend her still today 'Cause there ain't no doubt I love this land God Bless the U.S.A.

Now this nation that I love is fallin' under attack.
A mighty sucker-punch came flying in from somewhere in the back.
Soon as we could see clearly through our big black eye,
Man, we lit up your world like the fourth of July.
Hey, Uncle Sam put your name at the top of his list,
And the Statue of Liberty started shaking her fist.
And the eagle will fly and it's gonna be hell,
When you hear Mother Freedom start ringing her bell.
And it'll feel like the whole wide world is raining down on you.
Ah, brought to you, courtesy of the red, white and blue.
Blessid union of souls
I Still Believe
Ten years have passed and we're right where we were
Some things are better but so much is worse
I wonder sometimes if we're under a curse
What was once laughter has now turned to tears
And it seems not we're all just living in fear
And I can't help wondering how we here, so far
But I still believe
I still believe in love
So much has happened and so much has changed
But then again I guess it's more of the same
And we have got only ourselves to blame
I think of what life will be like years from now
I hope things get better but I can't see how
When all of the lines that we've crossed can't be found nowhere
But I still believe
I still believe in love
Yes I still believe
I still believe that God is the one who has made us
And got is the one who can save us
But God is the one we're afraid of believing
While all the world just keeps on fighting
All of our children keep dying
But I believe love just keeps trying to lead
But I still believe
I still believe in love
Yes I still believe
I still believe in love |
