9/11


On 9/11 we were in Warsaw, Poland. A couple of months later, in November, I went to New York and visited the Ground Zero. The ruins were still smoldering, everything was covered with dust, there was an awful smell, and this very eerie sense that something terrible had happened there.


The only other places I had that feeling were when as a young lad I went to visit a former Nazi concentration death camp in Northern Poland and many years later when I visited Ground Zero in Nagasaki, Japan. It was as if thousands of souls were crying out. It is an experience one cannot forget.


Let us pray for all the victims and their families, and for those who protect our freedom. Let us not forget that our freedom is not free and it shouldn't be taken for granted. May God Bless and Protect America.
