I have been sitting in front of my tv for hours now, I cannot believe that something like this could happen. I have my candle lit and my heart is acheing for all of you that are going through this pain. I am in Africa and we feel your pain here and you are and will be in our prayers. Take care and stay safe With love, Extsee (Natasha) Dear Friends~ I do not understand the events of today. Nor do I want to ever fully understand the reasoning behind such heinous hatred as we have witnessed today.. We need to unite and welcome one another into each other's arms, our hearts, our prayers,and yes,.our websites. To close ourselves off from one another is not the unity that we need to overcome this kind of evil. There is a strength that comes in numbers and standing together, especially during adverse times such as this. I urge you to embrace your friends and unite strong as part of the link to the solution to overcoming this. We need to hold strong onto one another more now than we ever have. We need to pray together for salvation from a world that is being victimized by violence. Do not isolate yourself by closing down yourself. Let us all open our hearts to one another and hold tight to the prayers and hope that we have. We have been spared to carry on with strength and dignity. Let not the lives that have been lost be in vain. Let us rally together for peace now more than we ever have! Yes, we want restitution, but let us also light the candles of peace and allow it's light to shed some hope upon our people world wide. Join hands and be strong for those that have lost their lives today! Sing out the glory that is the freedom that we have to love one another freely. Let these lives that have been lost today live within our hearts in the form of purpose of our own lives shared with one another. May the peace remain with us after the darkness, may the light of hope shed the wisdom and strength to help us carry on with our hands joined tightly! I am sending a plaque to you in honor of the lives that were lost today. Let us pray and keep the faith that Peace will one day overcome the violence. Love, Noel I just sat today about three hours looking in TV what has happened in New York. I am complettly horrofied with the terrible images and the whole situation in what the american people are involved now. When I looked to all those scenes I must say I fell myself ashamed to belong to the human being race who kann provocate such a terror... All my solidarity to all americans and others who has family or friends in New York. Sicerely, Tania aka Barbiel born in Brazil, living in Germany (written 9/11/01) I was completely horrified by todays events. It is an unbelievable tragidy that will forever be in our history books. I want to show my support for all that were affected by this day so I made this cross to honor the memory of everyone who died because of the attacks. Tomorrow I am donating blood to help the survivors and I invite everyone to join me in donating. The nation is in Desperate need now, more than ever. If anyone else has made a plaque or graphic for this, I will gladly display it on my site to show my support! Diane S. Quite some time ago, I lived in the US for a few years. I was received by opened arms and always treated with love and kindness. I can say that I felt at home on those days and that USA and its people will live in my heart forever. Today, sad, shocked and horrified by this tragedy, I want to give my solidarity and sympathy to all the American people. Even though being so geographically far, my, and I'm sure, all the Brazilians thoughts and prayers are with the Americans. I share their tears. God Bless America. Thank you, Paula In this view of the recent tragedy , I'd like to tell you that, there is no border to feel the pain, that is on the Americans heart, but even if I am Mexican, I live here and feel this breaking my heart too. So I'll be praying for everybody. I'm sending you this little present, from Me (and every Mexican). Claudian_72 To all members of the Garden...We as Americans are all saddened by the terrorist attacks on the United States yesterday.. We sit here in such sorrow for all those that have loss their lives, and all the families who lost their loved ones, and the impact that this could happen in our great country.

My heart goes out to all of you who had relatives and friends in New York and Washington - I will be praying for you all ... May we all take time as we go on and take a minute of time to have a moment of silence for all those victims and make sure that you always tell the ones you love just that you love them before they leave for their day, and remember to give blood ... We as Americans will stand strong .... here is a cross for remembrance to all those lost souls. May God be with you all and your families... with much love and sadness I will be thinking of you........... Babyr We might be on the other side of the world but we are just as shocked.
