5. The tragic day of September 11
September 11, 2001, was a terrible day that changed the entire world completely! This photograph from September 11, 2001, is one of the most powerful images ever. Nobody will ever forget the New York Twin Towers’ collapse as a historical event. You clearly recall being in that location when it occurred. This terrifying image was captured just seconds after the second jet struck the buildings. It’s a depressing image that nevertheless makes you feel queasy in the stomach.
Where were you when this event happened? I remember I was sitting at the table with my family, and we were watching the news and praying for all the people who were in the buildings. It was definitely a horrible day that will remain stuck in our memories forever!

How can I forget the horrible day of September 11, 2001? I was doing my normal morning routine of an hour on my treadmill, watching the news on TV, when, suddenly, the cameras all shifted to NY’s World Trade Center and the first tower being struck. To say I felt the shock would be an understatement. My treadmill had a chest-strap that kept track of my heart-rate, and the moment I saw the plane hitting the towers, my treadmill slowed almost to a stop! I stood there, aghast at what I saw, unwilling to accept it, knowing that it was real. All these years later, I still feel an odd sense of shock just in recalling the incident. Extreme sorrow is so inadequate when reflecting on this outrage.
We witnessed pure evil that day. Human being do not perpetrate such an act – demons do. Never forget. NEVER FORGIVE!!!!!
That was a terrible day for me too!! It was my birthday, and I was on vacation in Baltimore, MD at the Inner Harbor. Watching the news on tv, in my hotel room and having my morning coffee. My girlfriend was in the shower. There was a breaking news story in NY, and I saw the first tower on fire. When the second tower got hit, I let out a gasp and screamed oh no!! My girlfriend ran into the room, wondering why I had screamed!! We both stood there, in shock and total silence!! I still feel sadness and an uneasiness every birthday now. I also watch the videos every year!! NEVER FORGET!!
