IT'S HARD TO BELIEVE THAT 11 YEARS HAVE PASSED SINCE THE DESTRUCTION OF THE WORLD TRADE CENTER'S LANDMARK TWIN TOWERS.
OF COURSE IT'S HARD TO BELIEVE THAT SOMEONE WOULD PLOT SUCH A HEINOUS ATTACK.
ON A BEAUTIFUL, SUNNY, TUESDAY MORNING 19 AL-QAEDA-AFFILIATED TERRORISTS HIGHJACKED FOUR PASSENGER PLANES...AND FLEW TWO BOEING 767 JETS INTO THE WORLD TRADE CENTER COMPLEX...ONE INTO EACH OF THE TOWERS. THEY ALSO CRASHED ONE JET INTO THE PENTAGON IN WASHINGTON, DC AND ANOTHER CRASHED INTO A FIELD IN PENNYSYLVANIA AFTER THE PASSENGERS ATTEMPTED TO GAIN CONTROL OF THE PLANE FROM THE HIGHJACKERS.
NEARLY 3,000 PEOPLE DIED IN THE ATTACKS INCLUDING THE 19 TERRORISTS.
NEARLY 3,000 PEOPLE FROM ALL WALKS OF LIFE...AMERICANS, CANADIANS AND MANY OTHER NATIONALATIES.
3,000 PEOPLE WHOSE FAMILIES WILL NEVER SEE THEM AGAIN...JUST DEVASTATING.
I COULD GO ON AND ON ABOUT THIS TERRIBLE TRAGEDY...BUT THE POINT I WANT TO MAKE IS THIS: LIFE IS SHORT...LIFE IS PRECIOUS.
THE PEOPLE WHO BOARDED THOSE PLANES THAT DAY, THE PEOPLE IN THE WTC THAT DAY AND THE PEOPLE WHO RESPONDED TO THE ATTACKS (POLICE, FIREMEN, PARAMEDICS, RESCUE WORKERS) HAD NO IDEA WHEN THEY WOKE UP THAT MORNING AND SAID GOODBYE TO THEIR FAMILIES THAT IT WOULD BE FOR THE LAST TIME.
TAKE A MOMENT TO REFLECT...PRAY FOR THOSE WHO LOST THEIR LIVES AND THOSE WHO LOST LOVED ONES. TAKE A MOMENT TO EXPRESS YOUR GRATITUDE TO GOD THAT YOU ARE STILL ALIVE.
DON'T PUT OFF TELLING THE PEOPLE YOU LOVE THAT YOU LOVE THEM.
PICK UP THE PHONE, KNOCK ON THEIR DOOR...IF YOU LOVE 'EM, TELL 'EM.
GOD BLESS YOU ALL AND GOD BLESS AMERICA.
