I post this here simply to avoid people from trying to claim my words as their own. It doesn't happen often but it has happened.
Enjoy.
As I know most of you will want to reach out not only to one another to comfort and reflect on this solemn occasion, you may also want to reach out to those, you may know personally or not so personally, that lost someone in the buildings that were attacked. I ask that you do so gently and considerately.
I ask that you do not post pictures of the planes or towers or of the Pentagon from that day on these peoples Facebook time lines. For some the sight of these icons and images is enough to throw them back to the moment that they horrifically and forever lost someone dear to them.
If you feel you can reach out to them, simply say you are thinking of them and wish them well.
As it is a day of mourning for America and many around the world, it too is a day of great loss and heartbreak for some of our fellow citizens of this country and our brothers and sisters around the world.
It is okay to remember and reflect on the day. Do not force some to relive the pain again.
Your Friend
Bill
