God Bless America.

I don't have anything particularly eloquent to add, just condolences and prayers.

I hate to say when this happened i was only 11, and it was live on t.v. I just watched it and thought it was a new movie they were releasing... Now adays I look back on it and think how ignorant I was. A very sad day, and may I quote

Mr. Vice President, Mr. Speaker, members of the Senate and the House of Representatives: yesterday, December 7th, 1941—a date which will live in infamy—the United States of America was suddenly and deliberately attacked...

I know the dates wrong but it still has the same meaning with 9/11/01

Seven years, and I'm still at a loss for words. I feel an urge to say something meaningful. Not profound, not eloquent, just meaningful. The words don't come. No shame in borrowing from wiser men:
I hope that the families of the victims have found some peace and resolution and that whatever faith sustains them, continues to heal.

My condolences

I'll never forget my panic, or more touchingly - watching my mother panic - because my grandparents were in New York that day. I was only 11 at the time, but I will still never forget that concern (Yes they were fine). I can only begin to imagine what it would be like to lose someone in one of these attacks.

One of the few things I believe will be forever etched into my mind was watching the CBS live response that morning, when they were interviewing a woman when the 2nd tower was struck right as she was speaking, right in front of my eyes, as the broadcast was showing the smoking 1st tower, only to record live the 2nd one being struck. She absolutely lost her mind, and, even at 11, I was awestruck at the moment.

Well, that day I came home. My mum was talking in the phone (not related to that) and I was looking TV. I started to pass the channels, all the news channels we had were broadcasting such thing. Of course, some where exxagerating the thing (curse the sensasionalists). I asked my mum why it was so important, and she told me that it was important because that was a attack. I did not realize why... I do now. Looks like when we are too young we are too innocent, being part of the world, but at the same time, being outside of the "Politic" world.
We grow, and we start to get inside it.

It doesn't matter how in are we in the political world. But that day it did. There aren't any victims that deserved it. They were common people. Did it really had to happen?

God bless the souls of those people.
