9/11

Today marks the 13th anniversary of the September 11th attack on The World Trade Center and the United States. I remember waking up headed to my first class in college and seeing the news in disbelief. When I finally made it to class everybody was just sitting there and I don't think anybody really understood the magnitude of it all. Once they let us leave class I was glued to the TV along with the rest of the world. Thirteen years later I still find myself glued to the TV when the replays are shown. I went to New York City a few times and I went to a makeshift morgue and to just be there was so powerful because I could feel life and death there. So many people lost their lives and lost loved ones it's just crazy. We've come so far and done so much since then so today we should all reflect and be thankful for how we've grown in 13 years and show respect for the people that never got the chance to.
