Cookie's Corner
by Vinita Maynor CCark
Hello there world. Today, we take the time to remember those
who took the time to honor all of those that were involved on September
11, 2001. Truly, it was one of the days in history that the world
stood still. 1 went to Lumberton and attended one of the memorials. Mr.
Bobby Thompson who was a firefighter in NYC was honored because
of his relatives living in Robeson County. His sister stood beside the
wall crying and I went up to her and said "all of this is to honor your
brother, he would want you to stand straight and proud for him. Can you
just see him looking down from heaven with a smile on his face, just to
know that this was to honor him?" I had sent a fax to the funeral home
and the poem that I sent them was printed on the back of the program. I
read the poem and gave Bobby's mother the candle that I had brought. "1
want to give you this Ms. Thompson, and when you lite it think of your
son and know that he is truly in a better place." There was a slide showthat
showed the WTC building being destroyed and sometimes it was
too much for the Thompson family to bare.
If you want to view the poem, go to Yahoo and type in "strike at
the wind." It is under "you will not be forgotten." 1 also created a web
page lor the outdoor drama and it is also on their. If you want to write
me my email address is at the bottom of the screen and 1 will be happy
to hear from all of you.
1 sat there in front of the television and the only thing that I could
think of was to pray for God to bless the families of the ones that were
involved. My brother wrote a song that went "we'll be changed in the
twinkling of an eye. to live with our Lord in the sky. We'll walking on
the street of gold, we'll live forever and never grow old, we'll be changed
in the twinkling of an eye." Well, what my brother wrote in around 1991
happened exactly ten years later. It makes me wonder if my brother
knew something that others did not.
I have to admit that 1 was very glad to hear that Stacy Locklear Jr.
had made it out of the Pentagon. I have known him since he was in my
Cub Scouts troop and back then in my heart I knew that he was going to
be someone special. When his parents heard from him, I guess that he
knew that there would be alot of people praying for him. And God does
answer prayers, that is something that we all know for a fact. There
were four Lumbees that did not make out of the WTC that day. But,
because of legal issues I can not tell you who they are.
Strike at the Wind
For those cast members that are wondering what is going on with
the drama. So, far 1 can tell you that already had the board meeting that
they promised that the cast members would be invited to and we weren't.
There is going to be a get together at Dan's home on the 20th if you can
come.
I hope that you will take the time to lite a candle and take a moment
to remember the ones that were left behind on 9/11.
See you next time!
You Went Awav
On September 11th, you went away.
To live with Jesus in heaven, but we wanted you to stay.
In a twinkling of an eye, you were gone.
For us not to seen you again , until we get to God's throne.
I cannot begin to tell you the nights that I have cried.
Remembering the times that you were by my side.
I roll over to touch you and you're not there.
Sometimes, 1 go and sit in your chair.
I see you, then you vanish, or you just walk away.
And 1 have to remember that this only happened yesterday.
In my dreams, no one not even the hijackers can take you away
from me ever again.
Cause in my dreams, you're mine.
In my dreams, you will abide.
My love for you will never die.
In my dreams you will remain.
We might not have tomorrow
But, we had yesterday
Never doubt dear, because you were taken away.
That in my dreams....you're mine.
