Remember the Fallen: September 11th, 2001

by beth on September 11, 2009

I have no good words for this day

I have no way to explain what hap­pened in a way that makes sense

Instead I remem­ber the fallen

What they gave

What was taken

What was lost

Their lives

Father Mychal Judge

He is vic­tim 0001

First removed from Ground Zero

Rais­ing of the Flag at Ground Zero

Fire­fight­ers searching

Hope rises from ashes

Names from Ground Zero

We took this pic­ture when we were in New York

We didn’t take many pic­tures that day, instead we sat, we prayed, & we remembered

We remem­bered those from Ground Zero

We remem­bered those from the Pentagon

We remem­bered those from United Air­lines Flight 93

The Pen­ta­gon Crash Site

Piece of the Plane Crash from United Air­lines Flight 93, PA

Today we will con­tinue to remember

Their faces, their names, their lives

We will con­tinue to pray

We will not forget

Remem­ber the Fallen

that was beautiful, and a testament as to how even 8 years later 9/11 still affects us.

we will never forget.

Thanks for that. I’ve cried like a baby at each of these I’ve read, and yet I’d read them all a thousand times. I will never forget.

Wonderful, heartfelt remembrance on this difficult day. I do not think any of us will ever forget where we where that morning.
