Fall 2011 - Where did the Summer Go / a moment of reflection and rememberance.

Two Earthquakes and a Hurricane brought an untimely end to the New York Summer and now we find ourselves in Fall again. The First Few weeks in September moved by and at the occasion of September we all remember too well the innocence that was shaken on that well known date in history, we lived it with you. They did a good job of Remembering those who gave so much for freedom and meeting that challenge with hope for the Future this year at the site, but real and understandable sadness for the losses will always also be a part of it (in testimony to our humanity). The Children that lost so much are deep within our thoughts as are all the others who experienced the extremity of that day.

We didn't want to think about it, other than to share support for those who endured and those who gave so much and for the expectation that Our Nation is doing all it can to defend Our Future. To the Brave Men and Women who serve and Protect, we appreciate ALL that you do for us every day.   May we in future times always remember and honor ALL who serve and those who made great sacrifices without knowing what they were facing on that day, and with knowing.

Our Words will never be enough, but it seems very difficult to move forward without acknowledging it all in it's gravity.   We live in the Land of the Free and the Home of the Brave, may it always remain as such and may we never forget that as we move forward we have a continued need for vigilance and reasonable defense in protection of ALL that we share in Freedom.

As a Nation we seemed not to have taken that good care of Our Vietnam Veterans, let's make sure that on this round we get it right and preserve and protect those who have bravely defended Our Nation in the years ahead to best honor those who gave all and those who protect.

Our words will never be able to fully express, but if you know that we care then that is enough - we always will. May the thoughts and prayers we send for all in need of support in these key times be well received.
