Always Remember
There’s only a handful of moments that I remember what I was actually doing at the moment of tragedy. September 11 is one of them. I JUST rolled out of bed when I was told a plane crashed into the World Trade Center. When I sat down on the couch to watch the Today Show, I saw the second plane hit. Thankfully, everyone that I knew in the area was safe. Everyone has a story about September 11. We may not have known an actual victim, but as we all know, what happened on September 11 could have happened to anyone of us who sat and watched the towers fall that day. The one paper that I am most proud of talks about the news stories people remembered. September 11 is a part of our folklore that we will pass down from generation to generation… just as we have Pearl Harbor. September 11 to me is when we lost our innocence. Most of all, the stories we should focus on should be one of courage, faith and perserverence. Just remember and be thankful for every blessing that comes your way.
