Here it is 8 years later...September 11th is still so vivid in my memory. I woke up to the news of what had happened and quite honestly it did not sink in until later that morning when I was at work. I was having what was probably my 3rd cup of coffee and reading the news on the web when it hit me. Terrorist attacks on American soil??? How could that possibly happen? Those things dont happen to us!
Quite clearly, it did happen and we were all reeling from the impact. We were no longer invincible, or untouchable. The world has changed, nothing would ever be the same.
The events of September 11th will never be forgotten or will the impact ever diminish. Even though I felt a tremendous sense of loss and violation. I remembered that attacks like this happen all too often all over the world, terrorism is part of their daily life. What kind of life can that possibly be? Although, I cannot wrap my mind around the concept, the truth is life goes on and people survive the best way they can.
The human spirit will triumph!
