i'm feeling so sentimental...9/11

I find myself looking up information about 9/11/01 on you tube and google.  Then i find myself tearing up and longing for those families who's loved ones are serving and protecting our freedom to find peace and happiness!  AHHHHH, i am so greatful for their bravery and service!  I don't think i am that brave...to put myself in front of harms way.  I can not begin to put into words my feelings for our military and policemen and firefighters who don't walk but run into harms way, just to keep us all safe and protected!  GOD BLESS those who protect us and our freedom!!!!!
