Never forget

9.11.01
Where were you? 
Me?
I was a freshmen at college when I got the frantic phone call from my mother telling me what has happened. I didn't believe what she was saying was true. So, in disbelief I turned on the television where the nightmare as Americans began...

I couldn't understand the world we lived in was no longer safe. There were evil people that were willing to take innocent people's lives and for what? To prove that the Middle East has taken everything from us.

9.11 was such a sad day for everyone but I couldn't imagine what the people who lost loved ones on the day were feeling. The loved ones in the plane, the buildings, or the brave firemen trying to save lives. 

What this day has taught all of us is how United we are. I feel everyone honored and loved this country a little more by the events that happened that fateful day.

So, take a moment reflect why you love this country and remember as Americans we stand united.

In other news, today is my dads birthday! 
Yes, a former bomber fighter jet shares a birthday with 9.11 events.





Xoxo,
Jess
