"Favorit Quotes"
Aim at heaven and you will get earth thrown in. Aim at earth and you get neither.
~C. S. Lewis
Let no man pull you low enough to hate him. ~Martin Luther King Jr.
If we have no peace, it is because we have forgotten that we belong to each other. ~Mother Teresa
If your pictures aren't good enough, you're not close enough. ~Robert Capa
We are the music makers, we are the dreamers of dreams. ~Willy Wonka
Only put off until tomorrow what you are willing to die having left undone. ~Pablo Picasso
Every baby comes with the message that God is not yet discouraged with man. ~Rabindranath Tagore
God is in the slums, in the cardboard boxes where the poor play house… God is in the silence of a mother who has infected her child with a virus that will end both their lives… God is in the cries heard under the rubble of war… God is in the debris of wasted opportunity and lives, and God is with us if we are with them. ~Bono

Will you forgive? You said peace and that may involve forgiveness.
I never thought about it that way... I guess there are two ways to remember. Never forget the terror or never forget the heros.
I will never forget the lives that were lost and the men and women who fought to save lives.
Heros!
Their lives will be remembered and honored.
how about this...
"A history forgotten and not forgiven is a history repeated."
once again...
peace.
I have thought about this topic quite a bit in the last few days after seeing so many banners on t.v. that read "Don't forget" or something along those lines. Could I really forget such an event? Something that caused my heart to grieve and my sense of safety to feel so jepordized? Could I even forget if I wanted to? I'm sure I'm not alone when at times I wish that I could erase those terrible images...and maybe some of the five years of images since then.
I cannot forget.
Johno,
Thanks for replying to my sniper attack and not just deleting it. You are a true friend.
I think I'm tempted to feel entitled to the justice that must be delt for the attacks on 9/11. However, when I read the teachings of Jesus I am convicted that He wants us to deal peace.
How amazing is our God who chooses to forgive and then casts our sins as far as the East is from the West.
Seen this?
