Give a little bit... of your love to me.
5 years. 5 years ago today our country and lives changed forever.
Let's take today and not point fingers, place blame, call out our government's inadequacies, divide ourselves into left and right or project outcries of action not taken or action that should not have come to pass. Let's take today and remember all of the 2700 plus people that died on this day 5 years ago. Every single person who perished in this tragedy was someone's mother, father, sister, brother, wife, husband, daughter, son, lover or friend. Let's not forget about them, because they paid the ultimate price.
All of us lost something on this day 5 years ago. Some of us lost everything. Let's take today (and every day) to pledge a new commitment to unite ourselves not only as Americans, but as human beings.
I probably sound like a hippie, but that's fine by me. Peace, love and unity. That's what it's really all about.

my little hippie child, i am so very proud of you and your sister and ben and lori and chris, taking the time to remember those whom others have already forgotten. Giving your time and energy to support others because you care enough to do so. With your blogathons and now this. My cousin, would say thanks for remembering us, on this day. Hey Bobby, rest in peace, and even tho there aren't any fires up there, thanks for saving those you could.

I love you too, Mom. I'm sorry your city had to suffer so much, and I'm sorry that I never got to meet Bobby. But he is a hero and I'm sure he's keeping Gramma and Grandpa company.
All my tree-hugging ways I learned from you. :D
