Subject: Light a Candle for Unity!

I received this from a co-worker whom I've never even met. I liked the idea and thought maybe some people here might like it too.


Though terrorists may have struck out at us as Americans, let us come together and show our unity. Let us show that though our arm may have been hurt, they can not dim the heart of America which rages bright. On Thursday, September 13, 2001 at 10:30 pm EST, walk out your door and
light a candle or lantern to show the world that our spirit burns bright. Gather with loved ones or gather with neighbors but let our light burn in the night to show that we are united and that we remain strong.

Please pass this on to anyone you know. Print it up and pass it to neighbors who may not have internet access, post it to message boards, clubs, news stations, anywhere and everywhere there is a PROUD American!
