10 Years Ago...

Ten years ago on September 11, 2001 was a day America will never forget.

The day the World Trade Centers collapsed.

Planes were hijacked by terrorists and

thousands of lives were lost.

That morning I was at the SL airport with Tessa who's best friend was leaving on a mission when we heard the news.

I don't think it really sank in and I didn't fully understood the magnitude of what had happened and what it meant.

I drove to school and went to my class at the institute building.

TVs were on everywhere and people were crying.

Large groups of people were knelt in prayer praying together.

Today marks 10 years.

And I am so happy to be an American.

I'm so thankful to live in America where this land is blessed.

Thank you to all the Heroes who risked and sacrificed their lives for the sake of others.

My heart goes out to the victims and the families who have lost loved ones in this terrible tragedy.
