I beg you all not to forget what today is and what it’s significance has become. September 11 truely was the 102 minutes that changed this country. So many needlessly lost their lives for nothing. Don’t begrudge those that still lose their lives for us every day. It happened only 7 years ago and so many have already forgotten. Please I just ask you to remember where you were when you found out and how you felt. I don’t care if you are Republican or Deomocrat. I don’t care if you are black or white or anthing in between. This impacted all of us. Don’t forget. I pray none of us ever do…

“Now, we have inscribed a new memory alongside those others. It’s a memory of tragedy and shock, of loss and mourning. But not only of loss and mourning. It’s also a memory of bravery and self-sacrifice, and the love that lays down its life for a friend–even a friend whose name it never knew. “
- President George W. Bush, December 11, 2001
