United States of America

WTC Twin Towers - Hope & Pride
Just remember you cowards "These colors don't run!"

American's will forever be united, you can't take that away. You only made us stronger!

On Tuesday, September 11, 2001
The United States of America
was attacked thru a horrific act of terrorism. This cowardly act has effected American's in a way that words can not explain. The loss of so many American brothers and sisters in such a short time is just, well... there are no words to explain this.

 We Will Never Forget!

To all the victims, heroes and the families  hurt by this tragedy we offer our condolences, our love and our thoughts and prayers . And to everyone around the world sharing in our grief, thank you.

Lots of love to all,
Sandy, Larry and Family

The Power of Freedom

I know you're celebrating
what your evil deeds have wrought
But with the devastation
something else you've also brought

For nothing is more powerful
than Americans who unite
Who put aside their differences
and for freedom fight

Each defenseless victim whose
untimely death you caused
And every fallen hero
whose brave life was lost

Has only served to strengthen
our national resolve
Each freedom-loving citizen
will surely get involved

You've galvanized our nation
into a force so strong
We'll end your reign of terror
although the fight is long

For every heart that's broken
ten million will stand tall
and every tear that's falling
is the mortar for it all

And when this war is over
one thing I know is sure
Our country will be greater
and our freedom will endure

Written by: "Diana Hoffman" 

USA

So do you think you can tell heaven from hell, blue skies from pain?

So do you think we can change everybody that hates before it's to late?

We don't need any more pain.

No more losing our friends or losing ourselves.

Lyrics above from: Pink Floyd

 

The day America cried.

Pictures from our trip to New York City 3/9/02

USA

Little Eyes

a child cried
as their world was blown apart
no one saw the enemy
and the darkness in their hearts

little eyes watched
as a city fell to it's knees
enemies didn't hear their cries
and they didn't bear their pleas

mommy and daddy
will never be the same
little hearts are scared
the world has gone insane

what do we tell our children
what can we possibly say
how do you explain hatred
in a kind and gentle way

children don't sleep soundly
they don't go out and play
my little girls cry
and I can only pray

My reasons for starting this site:

It's been so hard dealing with this tragedy, just like it has been for everyone. I felt so helpless and wanted so much to do more. Other than prayer, blood and money what more was there? The next morning after the attack of September 11, 2001 a good friend who writes poetry called to read her poem to me. I loved it and asked for her permission to put it on the internet. And for me it was my way of helping, by sharing this poem to the world. Since then she has written another poem. You can view them both below.

Thank you Diana!

The American's Creed

"I believe in the United States of America as a Government of the people by the people, for the people, whose just powers are derived from the consent of the governed; a democracy in a Republic; a sovereign Nation of many sovereign States; a perfect Union, one and inseparable; established upon those principles of freedom, equality, justice, and humanity for which American patriots sacrificed their lives and fortunes.

I therefore believe it is my duty to my Country to love it; to support its Constitution; to obey its laws; to respect its flag, and to defend it against all enemies."

God Bless America, Again. You see all the trouble that she’s in. Wash her pretty face, dry her eyes and then… God Bless America, Again.

Dear God, I sure do wish you’d bless America again, you know like you did way back when it all began. You blessed her then but we just sort of kind of took it for granted and never asked again. So just hold her hand god that’s all, and if she should stumble please don’t let her fall.

How we can help

 

God Bless America

"Everyone I've talked to in the past few days has shared a common frustration, saying in one form or another, "I just wish I could do something! "You are already doing it. Just keep faith in America, and continue to support your President and military, and the outcome is certain. If we fail to do so, the outcome is equally certain. God Bless America."

The above quote is from a letter by Dr. Tony Kern, Lt Col, USAF (Ret)
Former Director of Military History, USAF Academy.

American FlagFly the flag to show your support and unity
with the victims and emergency workers of this tragedy.
Show your respect for the people who lost their lives simply because they were Americans, and the rescuers who gave their lives trying to save their fellow Americans. If you don't have a place to fly a flag, hang a small one in a window or in your car.
Keep a flag in the window until we have justice for our people.
