Most of the time we spend life chasing our dreams and trying
to climb the success ladder. Then a life changing event occurs and we get real.
September 11, 2001 is a day I will never forget. That day I
got a glimpse at what it must feel like to live in a foreign country that is
always under attack. I remember being in 7th grade sitting in my
first hour science class when another teacher came in and told our teacher to
turn on the tv. I remember all my teachers having emotions of fear and anger.
I had the feeling that they didn't really know what was going on. I was scared, everyone was scared. School had
an early dismissal and I went home and we all cried as we watched fellow Americans die right before our eyes.
I remember for days and weeks and then months
we watched grown men and women grieve and try to pick up the pieces. Our
country was very much untied. We all wanted to do something to help.
We can never forget!
Where were you September 11, 2001?
