Subject: It is still unbelievable...

the horror of lives lost, buildings destroyed, and what will happen because of all of this.

It is amazing to see people willing to risk their lives trying to find victims knowing that it is against hope to find anyone alive at this point. Knowing that they are doing this for the loved ones of the victims. For America.

It is simply wonderful seeing the show of support from other countries. When I watched the Changing of the Guard I got goosebumps. Knowing that Germany shut down for 5 minutes of complete silence... hearing of Canada's support and those other countries that observed minutes of silence for America... it is comforting.

Many wonderful people are giving blood (Something I already do about every two months) and cash donations (something I intend to do) Many people are going to NY or standing by to go and help if they can be used. Flags are flying high. We know we have been wounded and deeply, but we will pull together and in the end we will be the victors against these evil terrorists.

I still feel pain thinking of these lost ones and their loved ones. Children that have lost Mommy and/or Daddy... Mothers and fathers that have lost a son or daughter... counsins... aunts... uncles...and so many others. I worry for pets of the victims that may have been forgotten about and will suffer a fate of starvation when no one comes to take care of them or they are sent to a pound because no one wants them.

And then there is the fear of war and all the repercussions from that... more lives lost... the economy... World War III?

Right now I am angry... angry with the people who did this and more angry with the scum in our country that are making the situation worse. Bomb threats, people taking advantage of others wanting to help and taking advantage of those desperatly trying to find answers. There are many things these people do in tragic times and that sickens me. Thank God there are far more good people than bad.

GOD BLESS AMERICA!
