![]() And She Cried
Revised On September 18th 2001 in
the aftermath of
AMERICA UNDER
ATTACK
On this date we as Americans
stood our ground
and tried to return to the
freedom we all once treasured.
We did not forget those we have
lost this past week
nor have we forgotten about all
the families and friends
touched so deeply by this
past week.
We took our lives once more
into our own hands
and did not give into
this evil selfish coward
whom had tried to take
America's Pride.
We took our Faith, Honor,
Trust and Belief in our fellow man
and moved forward as to show
our strength and unity.
We simply beleived in ourselves
enough to stand proud
and be the persons that
have made us whom we are today.
And that is the Strong Proud
Americans that we are fightin for
and showing the world that we
have not been weaken as a community
by the selfless acts of
this attack on America.
For if we stand still then they
have won
They have broken thee American
Spirit that drives us
and we cannot give into this
or they
win!
To all of our heroes both told
and untold
The policeman, the
firemen, the emt's and all the service workers
~GOD BLESS~
but most of all those who have
shown America once more
that we will stand
together
no matter what they tell
us
no matter what they show
us
no matter what they teach
us
We will beleive in
"US"
"Us" being the American
People of the United States.
"US" being the Families that
hugged one another
"US" being the religious
leaders that guide our children
"US" being the child that looks
to a parent for strength.
We will give of ourselves, our
beings as an American
from giving of blood to the Red
Cross
to Donating of monetary
value
to the endless hours of
prayer
and to the comforting
hours of listening
We all are giving of ourselves
in one way or another
regardless if it is the HUG we
give to a child
or the determination that we
will survive
and the labor put forth
for the day
to the friendly hello to a
neighbor
or across the
internet
just to let a friend know they
are special
and they are
treasued.
For if one lesson is learned
from this whole catastrophy
it is that whole America
wept
She also gave us
strength!
![]() Proud to be an American Written by Lori Ann Central
Minnesota USA
who wishes for her children to learn from this
and not be angry
Be proud.. Stand for your
beliefs in your fellow man
Hold true to your own values and
morals
and to always treat another as
you would like to be treated
for tomorrow may never
come.
