There are a million and one things I could say. There are a thousand prayers I could pray. There's hundreds of things I could try to do to "help".
At the end of the day - none of it matters. At the end of the day all that can ever be "done" is to honor, remember, and love.
Honor those that serve this country every day. I do not mean JUST our military, I also mean our fire, police, and first responders. I mean people who put their lives on the line daily in our very own communities to ensure our safety as American citizens. Honoring our military is also important, they leave their families for days, weeks, months, and even sometimes years at a time. They sacrifice and risk their lives every day for what happened a decade ago, today.
Remember those that were in the towers the day they fell, the Pentagon the day it was hit, the people who were just flying to a new destination the day they were driven into one of the most horrific days in US History. Remember the public service members that were lost trying to find the people who were buried in the rubble. Remember those that have fought and busted butt to defend our country. Remember the Seal Team 6 that killed Osama Bin Laden, and then later sacrificed their own lives to ensure our safety. Remember why. Remember who. Remember them all!
Love each other. Love our country. Love those that you've got close to you. Tomorrow may never come, accept and appreciate and love the time we've got together now while we've got it. Just Love.
At the end of the day - all that can be done now, a decade later; honor, remember, and love.
Always remember, never forget! 9/11/2001
These are the things on my mind...
There are a lot of things that I think throughout the day, and things I wish I could say that other people would hear.. Well, this is going to be my out. If you don't like what I've got to say you CAN disagree, but please be mature and accepting of everyone's voice and opinions! :)

RIP Navy Seal Team 6
I'm only going to say this once; like it or don't, that's your choice::
Loosing 31 MORE people to this war is sad, it's bad, and there's NOTHING good about it.. but if we did not have men/women willing to sacrifice their lives for everything that we - as the USA - stand for then we'd have been taken over by who knows which country by now. I do not defend anyone in particular in saying this; but I do not feel as though it's anyone's fault but the Taliban. They rammed OUR airplanes into the twin towers, they have killed hundreds of our soldiers since this war began, and THEY are the reason we continue to loose wonderful soldiers and people every single day. People, like the Navy Seal Team 6, are people that are PROUD to fight for our country and would've much more preferred to have "gone down" while doing what they love and fighting for this country than had they fallen "gone down" in their sleep!! My heart will forever go out to ALL the families that have lost a member, all the friends that have lost someone, and ALLLL the men and women who have paid the ULTIMATE sacrifice in this time of war; but don't think they won't go down in history and don't think that each and every one of them won't be remembered decades from now for being some of the most courageous, honorable, and loyal soldiers and citizens a person could be.
So, instead of taking this time to "blame" someone why don't we all just stop and appreciate their service, mourn for their loss, and REMEMBER THEM because that's the biggest honor we can give people of that caliber whom are fighting for our freedom!
