Remembrance
Disbelief.
Who would do this? What possible reason could a human being have to commit such a horrible act? I've heard the reasons, but I still haven't heard one that makes sense. What happened five years ago today was awful not just because of the lives lost that day, but because of the fear and uncertainty it planted. We have a hard enough time trusting our fellow man without having to worry about whether he's planning to kill us.
Right around the time of the attacks, I heard this song by Amy Grant and it will always be tied in with September 11, 2001 in my mind.
Somewhere Down The Road
So much pain and no good reason why
You’ve cried until the tears run dry
And nothing else can make you understand
The one thing that you held so dear
Is slipping from your hand
And you say
Why, why, why
Does it go this way
Why, why, why
And all I can say
Somewhere down the road
There’ll be answers to the questions
Somewhere down the road
Tho’ we cannot see it now
And somewhere down the road
You will find mighty arms reaching for you
And they will hold the answers at the end of the road
Yesterday I thought I’d seen it all
I thought I’d climbed the highest wall
Now I see the learning never ends
And all I know to do is keep on walking
Walking ’round the bend singing
Why, why, why
Does it go this way
Why, why, why
And all I can say
Somewhere down the road
There’ll be answers to the questions
Somewhere down the road
Tho’ we cannot see it now
And somewhere down the road
You will find mighty arms reaching for you
And they will hold the answers at the end of the road
I agree that it was a horrific day, & I agree we should remember. It's the VERY least we can do.
