WTC - Pre 9/11

Hiny photo comment

Here is NY - The Book

When my husband first showed me the link for this book, I had no interest whatsoever. Fortunately, we knew no one personally who was lost in this tragic event. However, as a New Yorker and a human being, it was very difficult for me to deal with what had happened. Initially I couldn't sleep and I would wake up crying about all of those innocent people who had lost their lives that day for no reason - whether in the towers, the planes or the pentagon. When my husband received this book he encouraged me to look through it and I did. Your book helped me realize that I should have been praying for all of the souls lost that day instead of crying. I should have been praying for all of the families that had to suffer such a great lost. So, from this point on, when I see an image of 9/11, instead of crying, I will pray that the survivors become stronger with each passing day and hopefully that there will come a time where they can truly be at peace. Thank's for sharing your view with the world. Let us ever forget, and let us pray that nothing like this ever happens again. DSC

the impact of this event will never be forgotten, the suddeness of it, with no prior preparation for the avoidance of such a devastating event, on what could have been otherwise just another NORMAL day. May the images remind us all of the power of Photographs which are of course, worth more than a 1000 words. If seeing is believing, then this should only show that the only way to heal the WORLD, the Universe is through LOVE, Tolerance, and Respect. Though this is very difficult to do in a very competitive World. To right the wrong, to forgive those who ignorantly Hate for the wrong causes is the best course of ACTION. The people of New York especially those who contributed in their only small yet major way helped--their actions should inspire all of us to be a little bit more grateful, for although philosophically speaking, LIFe can be hard,yet it can be very BEAUTIFUL. Let's keep on praying for a higher realm of consciousness. The event of 9-11 may be very well a sign that good can conquer over evil through right actions and thoughts. Please Read Conversations with God by Neale Donald Walsch. May all the lives lost be safe and protected on the other side, with angels and guardians. LCG*****
