...took my yearly walk yesterday downtown and have many thoughts and pictures to share...but for today I found what Eric said to be the best words to share...thank you Eric.
Today was a day to look around and remember how lucky we all are to have the people we have in our lives, and never forget... to be happy.
God Bless my fallen brothers and sisters, and I pray for a safe passage home for my brothers and sisters who remain at war..
God bless all of you..
~ Edward ...King of New York Hacks
We didn't forget, King. We gathered to honor and pray today, in little old Urbana, IL. We wept with bagpipes and 21-gun salute.
ReplyDeleteYour friend has the right idea, my friend Val does too.

ReplyDeletethank you King, we will never forget!
great tribute, thank you xx
ReplyDeleteToday I want to be angry, but tomorrow I will go back to work and continue on so the bastards will never win.
ReplyDeleteThey will not change me, I will not hate. But for one day each year I feel it necessary to be angry....for all those victims that didn't deserve any of this and all those soldiers that fought for my rights. God Bless Them all.
Today I consider myself a New Yorker, a Pentagon worker and a passenger aboard Flight 93. Today we are all one.
It's both painful and uplifting to remember.
ReplyDeleteThank you!
ReplyDeleteTherefore I've reminded of that day and this year I've brought your post to Germany again. Thank YOU, I hope you give me your permission...
Greetings from Germany, Petra
This is my favorite post of the day.
ReplyDeleteNever, will I forget.
God Bless you too, King.
DC/VA remembered.
ReplyDeleteThank you for stopping by today and giving your insights - I see we both know Chrissy, lovely lady she is! I'm honored to have a true New Yorker royalty visit - but in all seriousness - my heart always goes out to those who had to live it up close - and not watch it on TV. Yes, it changed all of us, and like Rita says, it's hard not to maintain anger at those whackos who did this, but we are better than that. And your friend shows how we can rise above ...
ReplyDeleteHi Edward, I thought of you today in the Great NYC. I'll look forward to seeing your photos. In the meantime-- Amen to Eric's words.
ReplyDeleteBe well, jj
Stopped by just for this today King ~ of course ~ h*o*p*e ~
ReplyDeleteand had and unusual thing happened just last night (saturday)you might like this story - a chick I know fairly well asked where I grew up, and I told her, (basically Colorado/Illinois suburbs) and she was shocked - she had me pegged for a New Yorker.
I got a real kick out of it! how random! & of course thought of you...as I did today ~

amen, brother. xoxoxo
ReplyDeleteWe will never forget. I did think of you today Edward.
ReplyDeleteHugs,

ReplyDeleteNice tribute, King. May NY's grief be sweet in the end. But yes, never forget.

Despite the horrors of the past, I am a firm believer in humanity and its potential for greater good. Excellent post, thanks for sharing!
