  4. Time does not quite heal all.  Two years have passed.  Seems like a lifetime; seems like yesterday.  I watched those towers go down from the relative safety and security of my office in Highland, NY.  I was shocked to numbness, shaken to my very core.  I wept, openly and unashamed.  I could not tear myself away from the horrific images.  The world was forever changed that day in September. 

    In the face of such tragedy, it would have been so very easy to simply leave it at tears, and horror, and numbness, and to allow myself to heal and to let the time pass and the memory fade.  I resolved NOT to do that.  I went down to our local volunteer fire department and volunteered to be a fire fighter.  Each night now, before bed, I read at least 5 of the names of those of New York's bravest who died on 9-11-01, and remember.  At each call I go on, I remember.  When I meet a challenge that I'm quite convinced I'm not up to, I remember.  When my pager goes off at 3am, and I wish it hadn't, I remember.  When my brothers and I represent the first line of assault and the last line of defense, I remember.  When some poor soul looks helplessly into my eyes because our knowledge and experience will impact the outcome of the rest of their life, I remember.  And I pray fervently that if and when the time comes where I have to "put it all on the line," that I live up to the legacy left to us all by those who perished that day. 

    Let the pain heal, but don't let the memory die.  Burn a candle, say a prayer, plant a tree...sure, its all good.  But think about a lasting memorial.  Volunteer.  Help.  Keep the memory alive in the best way possible...by following the example of the brave souls that day, and commit more than a passing thought or a shed tear to their memory.  Commit yourself.

  5. Diese Kerze möchte ich entzünden für alle Menschen die den schrecklichen Tag miterlebt haben, ob sie ums leben gekommen sind oder sich aus der Hölle befreien konnten.

    Jeder Name auf der Liste der Toten treibt mir eine Träne in die Augen und macht es mir schwer zu Atmen, all dieses soll Den Menschen zeigen das sie am 11.9 nicht allein waren, es gab Millionen von Menschen die bei euch waren und den Schmerz in der eigenen Brust spürten.

    Ich wünsche allen das es so einen grausamen Tag nie wieder geben wird.

  16. I would like to light a candle for all those who have died. Just think about
    all those who gave up their lives to trying to save other people's lives who
    they didn't even know. They were devoted to their jobs and familes. But
    atleast now maybe they can do their same jobs up in heaven and wait for their
    families to join them.:)
