Remembering

September 11, 2001. The entire world felt the impact as the Twin Towers in New York City crumbled to the ground on that fateful morning. All around the world, people watched as planes crashed into the ground in Washington D.C. and Pennsylvania. The world stood as one in front of their TVs in shock as the most massive terrorist attack in US history flashed right before their eyes.
September 11, 2008. 7 years later. The entire world remembers.

They attacked our Country. They attacked our Home. They attacked our Families. They attacked our FREEDOM. And We Will Not Forget.
Our soldiers fought hard for our Freedom. Our soldiers now fight harder to protect what they earned. Our soldiers have spent years away from their loved ones, away from the comforts of home. Our soldiers continue to need our love and support. Until our home is safe again and until every soldier is in the arms of loved ones or honorably placed to rest in US soil, we give our support.

The American flag flies today, in remembrance, in honor and in thanks to all those who have fought to protect us and keep us safe. The flag flies today to support those at home, praying for the safe return of our soldiers. The flag flies today to remind those who attacked us, that you can attack our buildings and our land, but you cannot attack our spirit.

God bless this land that I love.
