“I am definitely more emotional. If I see a picture of the twin towers, I get emotional and start to cry. I feel a need to watch on TV and to read everything I can about the attack on the towers, but when I do, all I do is cry for all those people who lost their lives. I am most affected by those who were above where the planes came in, and had no way to escape except to throw themselves out the windows, or to wait for the end as we now know it. There are days when I feel like crying all day for those people and their families. So many were touched by the tragedy, I can’t help but feel for them all.”

“The events of Sept. 11 will forever be remembered by this nation. I think the events of that day have caused me to have a deeper appreciation of the freedoms we enjoy as Americans. We cannot take for granted these freedoms that we have. A deeper sense of patriotism is another result. Those of us from ‘younger’ generations had not, until this event, had to live through wars or major acts of terrorism. This was an awakening for us and gave us a small glimpse of what men and women had to go through in years past to ensure the freedoms we have today. We owe so much to all who fought and sacrificed to give us this “Land of the Free and Home of the Brave.”
