DJ Sammy | Heaven 9/11 Remix 2011

this came on the radio as i was driving home from the store and caused me a very high level of distress.

you will cry. hard.

I was 8 (in 3rd or 4th grade) and I barely remember what it was like 10 years ago. I only remember that the twin towers and the Pentagon were the subjects of a terrorist attack.

It took me a few more years to understand what happened. Seeing pictures, watching documentaries, and hearing phone calls, everything made me more aware of what happened on that day. I always end up crying when I hear stories of people who have lost their loved ones. Stories of people who survived, but have to live and remember that dreadful day for the rest of their lives. Stories of soldiers who went into war because of this. Everything, everything just makes me cry.

My thoughts go out to everyone who was affected by 9/11.

“9/11 showed us what human beings are capable of. The evil, yeah, sure. But it also brought out the goodness we forgot could exist. People taking care of each other for no other reason than it was the right thing to do. It’s important for us to talk about that good, to remember. ‘Cause I saw all of it that day.”

- John McLoughlin, ‘World Trade Center’ movie
