Let Us Remember

9/11/2001-


Let's remember the acts of heroism today: the selfless acts of sacrificing oneself's security to help the others, a great example of pure altruism.

If you know a survivor, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE ask them about his/her story. We need to keep history alive. What do we know of Pearl Harbor besides that it was a tragic event? Nothing. NOTHING.

We want future generations, our posterity: our children of our children, and etc. to remember and to express the mental, the psychological, and the physical effects of this tragic event. Educate the future generations.

We, (at least I do), go to school everyday, worrying about my grades and comfort and friends, while people halfway across the world worry about their safety, the safety of their family, and the safety of America. Just life's trivial worries prevent me from remembering these saviors.


I know that I, myself, probably don't have the sacrifice in me to keep going up and down the flights upon flights upon flight upon flights of stairs the firefighters, policeman, local workers had to go through to try to save as many people's lives excluding their life. Idk if I have the heart in me, and maybe you can relate to such a feeling, but I know that I owe these people much of my life, for without them, Idk if I would be as safe as I am now.

My father and mother had no idea what "Terrorism" meant in the '70s. But our generation is different because we basically grown up in a world full of terror, unfortunately.

Most importantly, just remember how lucky U.S. is to have a military force that is composed of people who VOLUNTARILY sign up to preserve the liberty of the U.S. Nonetheless, one must understand that our lifestyles have been changed, and with the rise of ISIL/ISIS, we really don't know what to expect.


Thank you.

My uncle died on 9/11 at the World Trade Center. I weep for him on every 9/11.

This is why we always have to continue to keep the tradition of remembrance alive. There can't even be the slightest option of forgetting what happened that day.

You need to accept that you're a douche and no one on the forums agrees with anything you say

The one thing that really ticked me off was the smiley face at the end. What is so funny about dying?

We all know that death is around the corner and inevitable but the way you put it is like life is just a matter of a boring cycle that just goes round and round until you die. Just for your info, that is not the case. We should cherish our life cause when we die we cannot. Do not think life as a vicious cycle but rather an exciting experience.


Can people ever accept death? Is it even humane to do so? Think about it.

Amen brotha

My parents told me that they started crying when they saw that it wasn't debris falling out of the windows, but it was people trying to escape fires on the upper floor

From the other side of the world, I send my apologies for everyone's losses.

Look at it from many angles not just 1 :P
1.weaker genes will hurt our future
2.earth is ova populated
3.im not the one to chooses who dies or not but I am the one who chooses to accept the fact death is something you shouldn't be afraid from :P I have a question for you if a man kills on a killing spree and kills 40 people he gets life in prison
But when a man from a different country kills 40 people he's considered a terrorist and the government goes after them? Xd I always wondered what's the answer so please be the one to tell me :D

Sounds about right, but it's a matter of American citizenship as far as I can tell...
