This has not been broken since 9/11/01, please keep it going..
This has been kept alive and moving since 9/11. In memory of all those who perished this morning; the passengers and the pilots on the United Air and AA flights, the workers in the World Trade Center and th e Pentagon, and all the innocent bystanders Our prayers go out to the friends and families of the deceased.



IF I KNEW

If I knew it would be the last time
That I'd see you fall asleep,
I would tuck you in more tightly
and pray the Lord, your soul to keep.

If I knew it would be the last time
that I see you walk out the door,
I would give you a hug and kiss
and call you back for one more

If I knew it would be the last time
I'd hear your voice lifted up in praise,
I would video tape each action and word,
so I could play them back day after day.

If I knew it would be the last time,!
I could spare an extra minute
to stop and say "I love you,"
instead of assuming you would KNOW I do.

If I knew it would be the last time
I would be there to share your day,
Well I'm sure you'll have so many more,
so I can let just this one slip away.

For surely there's always tomorrow
to make up for an oversight,
and we always get a second chanc e
to make everything just right.

There will l always be another day
to say "I love you,"
And certainly there's another chance
to say our "Anything I can do?"

But just in case I might be wrong,
and today is all I get,
I'd like to say how much I love you
and I hope we never forget.

Tomorrow is not promised to anyone,
young or old alike,
And today may be the last chance
you get to hold your loved one tight.

So if you're waiting for tomorrow,
why not do it today?
For if tomorrow never comes,
you'll surely regret the day,

That you didn't take that extra time
for a smile, a hug, or a kiss
and you were too busy to grant someone,
what turned out t o be their one last wish.

So hold your loved ones close today,
and whisper in their ear,
Tell them how much you love them
and that you'll always hold them dear

Take time to say "I'm sorry ,"
"Please forgive me," "Thank you," or "It's okay."
And if tomorrow never comes,
you'll have no regrets about today.

They heard the call on September 11, now they watch down, from up in heaven.

They heard that call, and made their flight. Got to the site
and saw all the fright.

Men and women screaming in fear and pain, as the smoke poured out like rushing rain.

Help the people is all they knew, grab the strechers and run them on through.

Through fires and flames passing all the people screaming out someones names.

Climbing the stairs higher and higher, all their way, fighting the fires.

Broke open the doors, people in panic rushing out to lower floors.

These men and women were hero's through and through, fire, police, and citizens trying to rescue.

Many lives were lost and many lives were saved.

So lets all give thanks to the one's who braved.:heart:










I just wanted to KEEP them alive in our minds here.:heart:
