This sums up how I feel/felt today....

"God Bless the U.S.A."
by: Lee Greenwood

If tomorrow all the things were gone
I'd worked for all my life,
And I had to start again
with just my children and my wife,
I'd thank my lucky stars
to be living here today,
'Cause the flag still stands for freedom
and they can't take that away.

I'm proud to be an American
where at least I know I'm free,
And I won't forget the men who died
who gave that right to me,
And I gladly stand up next to you
and defend her still today,
'Cause there ain't no doubt I love this land
God Bless the U.S.A.

From the lakes of Minnesota
to the hills of Tennessee,
Across the plains of Texas
from sea to shining sea.
From Detroit down to Houston
and New York to L.A.,
There's pride in every American heart
and it's time we stand and say:

I'm proud to be an American
where at least I know I'm free,
And I won't forget the men who died
who gave that right to me,
And I gladly stand up next to you
and defend her still today,
'Cause there ain't no doubt I love this land
God Bless the U.S.A.

Thanks all for your words and thoughts on this anniversary. I tried to stay away from the news, and waited anxiously most of my day to hear something from my Master who is currently in the middle of all this, serving and protecting as he and I both have sworn to do. His e-mail on 9/11 meant more to me than any other I have received since his departure in June and thought it was only a short note to tell me he was okay I was greatful to get it. I pray daily for his safe return and am anxious to have him home.:heart:
