I will never forget!



September 11, 2001
I remember where I was and what I was doing, of course. What I also vividly remember is how I felt when I heard the news. Emotions ran through me, shock, then fear, and then feeling of helplessness. Here I was, a native New Yorker, stuck in the middle of the country in a suburb of St. Louis, Missouri. I so desperately wanted to pack up my car and get to NYC as quickly as I could. I NEEDED to pull someone out of the wreckage. For days, even months, I was CONSUMED with all coverage of what happened. I had to have every tidbit of information that I could get. I watched news stories, documentaries, read newspapers, magazine articles, and books. The event had literally consumed me and my life. Still to this day, 5 years later, if I see something about it, I stop and read it. I look at the pictures and watch the movies. I still cry. I will cry today, I actually already have. I will never forget.

God bless America!
