Good afternoon all,
Although years have passed, the memories have not faded
of the horrible events of September 11, 2001. Can you recall where you were when it started? What you were doing? I'm sure we all have memories and stories to share. Some of us, as well as friends or family members may havebeen called to duty, or as volunteers to help at the sites where the attacks occurred. So many lives lost, a Nation forever affected by the horrifying actions of terrorists."Dangerous enemies have declared their intention to destroy our way of life. They are not the first to try - and their fate will be the same as those who tried before - 9/11 showed us why. The attacks were meant to bring us to our knees, and they did - but not in the way the terrorists intended. Americans united in prayer ... came to the aid of neighbors in need ... and resolved that our enemies would not have the last word. The spirit of our people is the source of America's strength. And we go forward with trust in that spirit, confidence in our purpose - and faithin a loving God who made us to be free." -George Bush
On that note, please take time and reflect on this day. The working day is almost at it's end, and I haven't seen anything come across through email in reference to remembering 9/11. With that said, I grabbed a few videos and slideshows for your viewing and reflection.
