9-11

Where to start?
You would think that 7 years later this day would be a little easier, and I am SO glad to see that it is not, because if it were it would be such an insult to those who lost their lives 7 years ago.

I still remember it like it was yesterday. We had just flown back to Miami at 3 am, it was my husband and I, his parents, his 2 sisters and their husbands, his brother and wife. Just a few hours later I woke up jet lagged to see the first plane hit, all I could do was cry. How could someone have SUCH hate inside to be able to do such a horrible thing? The scary thing was that my husband's sister and her husband were supposed to fly to NY for a wedding that same day and that is also the day they found out they were expecting their first child. We all gathered at my in laws and just watched the news in complete disbelief. I am for ever grateful to the Lord that he spared us all that day.

Now I have to say, I am a Canadian citizen/American resident and i am PROUD to say that I am an American resident. The thing that pisses me off is when I hear people say "You know in my country we live to work, here we work to live" "Americans are thieves" "In my country..."
Please pardon my FRENCH GO THE F@#K BACK HOME IF YOU ARE SO FREAKING UNHAPPY, NOBODY WANTS YOU HERE ANYWAYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This country is the land of opportunity, but if you wants the goods, you need to bust your @$$ for it, lazy, complaining @$$e$.

I know my blog is not popular like the scrapbooking divas that I stalk every day but if at least 1 person read my post it's enough for me ;D

God bless our men and women who sacrifice their lives for ours every day and their spouses and children who are left behind in order for them to do this.

I will never forget. I understand your feelings regarding certain people and their attitudes. It's very difficult to hear negative things about our country, because although it is not a perfect country it is certainly the greatest in my eyes. The United States provide a large number of foreign nations with our military and give outrageous finanacial support, which some have never paid their debts and never will. It amazes me how we hear people talking nonsense regarding the difficulty in getting ahead in this nation...uuhhhhmmmm...I believe there is a reason why so many immigrants come here...because it is the land of opportunity...not everyone is rich, but the truth is, the possibility is there. That you have to work...uuhhmmmm..YEAH! That you get the opportunity to do so is an even greater privilege. So hats of to you for expressing your point of view and standing up for our Nation.
By the way, YOU CAN BE MY DIVA!!! I'm signing up right now!!LOL
