2996 Project

I paid Hannelie a visit this morning and noticed her post on the 2996 project started by D.Channeler Roe. The aim is to get 2996 bloggers to publish a post ON 9/11 remembering one of the victims of the 9/11 attacks.

I followed the link and found an interesting site and a lot of hype about people complaining about the reasons behind the project and such nonsense. You can read it for yourself and then draw your own conclusion whether you want to do it or not. I decided to do it. I don't live in America. I don't know anyone who died that day. I didn't loose a loved one in any of the attacks, but I am human. I am thankful, like Hannelie that it didn't happen in my town. I am thankful that despite all the violence in our own country, I have not been affected by it. I am thankful that I have a heart and I am thankful that I can now go and google for some information on the name that was assigned to me. I am hoping that I will be able to pay honest tribute to him and therefore I placed a thingy in my sidebar proving that I have joined the march. I couldn't think of a more fitting way to remember those who lost their lives on that day, than exactly this!!

I was number 1607 to sign up so there are still lots of names available. So, I have started preparing my post for 9/11. Are you going to do it? Go for it and click here to sign up.
