Remembering 9-11

It was 10 years ago that we saw great tragedy followed by a great outpouring of love. I thought it was interesting to see this week in our town this same attitude that we witnessed after 9-11. A car and a motorcycle collided and the motorcycle driver was trapped under the car. Good people, complete strangers rushed to the burning area while risking their lives and lifted the car and saved the life of the young man. Perhaps you saw it on the national news this week. I was so proud to be from Logan. Just like I felt so proud to be from America right after 9-11. I believe that it is within our natures to rush in and even risk our lives to help someone in need. I believe that when all is said and done even when bad things happen, love prevails.



In memory, I wanted to share a song I wrote after the original 9-11 10 years ago. The link to hear the song is here: This song is performed by Angela Winston. I will also write the lyrics below.

Love will Always Prevail
You show your hatred, you bring us pain
But we always find a way to love again
You cause destruction, you tear apart
But you’re never going to stop our beating heart
Because
America is built on Love
And the heart of this land will never fail
When all is said and done, we will still be number one
Because Love will always prevail.
We’ve been scarred by you before
And I’m sure America will see some more
But your hatred cannot compare
With the love you’re gonna see this nation share
Because
America is built on Love
And the heart of this land will never fail
When all is said and done, we will still be number one
Because Love will always prevail.
Try to tear us apart
And watch us pull together
America’s heart
Will keep beating forever.
Because
America is built on Love
And the heart of this land will never fail
When all is said and done, we will still be number one
Because Love will always prevail.
