I have thought about September 11th often over the past 5 years. I refuse to forget, as my parents and grandparents did not forget Pearl Harbor; which was also a terror attack, what has changed our lives so much. I will not hide or be afraid of the future because of some lunatics who do not like freedom and freedom of religion. I have many pictures in my home to remind me of this day. I pray often hoping those who perished are at peace. I still cry when I see the pictures of the towers and Pentagon and knowing the brave people of the last plane to go down. Movies are tough to watch but I feel they are an absolute necessary! We need to remember! The world also needs to remember that it was not only Americans who perished but others from around the world, we all had a part of us pulled into hell that day. This is not just a U.S. fight but a world fight and everyone should remember that.

Love and peace to all.
