A Day that will live in Infamy ... September 11, 2001 ... a day no American should ever forget! ...

Many of today's teenagers and young Americans probably have no recollection of that fateful day of fifteen years ago, nor the meaning or intensity of it for those of us who lived thru that early morning of the awakening of a new American era.  Many of today's children were not even born when tragedy struck the economic center of this entire world; many were too young to view the carnage shown in true, live format on American TV's and many were never taught the meaning of that epic event that brought Americans, not to their knees, but to their saddest and even greatest time.  Many of today's young people, and now young voters, don't really have a clue!  As I watched news today and relived that horrible event my emotions ran over in my heart and tears filled my eyes.  I remember waking to a wonderful sunny day and hearing from both my sons that something happened in New York City and to watch Fox News.  Today's weather here in NY was stormy at 6:30 AM with rain and wind, then the sky became very clear and the sun shown bright at around 9:00 in the morning; it was a beautiful September day, as it was and as I recall that Fateful Tuesday fifteen years ago.  Americans awoke then to a new world; to a new awakening.  Those of us who know, now have the responsibility to make clear that awakening to those young folks of today; never forget and teach them the lesson that there is still terror in this world.  It can and may still happen one wonderful bright sunny morning.  But as Americans we don't live in fear of possibilities but still we all must realize potential threats and prepare with prudent observations and defense.  God will always bless America.
