September 11, 2001...I remember


 

On September 11, 2001, two planes hit the World Trade Center, one plane hit the Pentagon and one crashed in Pennsylvania. I say that because there are a lot of people who weren’t born or were too young to remember. Tomorrow will be the 20th anniversary of the 9/11 attack. That day, our world changed forever and set in motion events that are still happening today.

 

I can remember exactly where I was that morning, a friend had called and told me to turn on the TV.  I can remember the skies being empty for days after. I can remember the anger I felt and thinking that everything was going to change. I can remember the sorrow I felt when I watch the death numbers start rolling in from CNN and the photos of ground zero.

 

“Most important of what I have learned in the past decade…beware of those who seek personal gain at another’s expense and a laissez-faire attitude can bite you in the ass.” I wrote that on 09/11/10 and it’s still true today.
