No, living in New York it's still raw for us...prayers for the dead and their families.
ReplyDeleteI still cry every 9/11. I was a senior in HS and in my second period class when the Principle came on the loudspeaker to tell us a plane had hit the WTC...you could see the smoke for days from my hometown...
ReplyDeleteI was already signed up for the Navy. Then I became a waste of life.
ReplyDeleteThanks to all those that served and helped. Even if you smoke weed. Fuck what Aunt Liddy says!
I was on a flight line prepping a helicopter to fly when my flight ops came running out to say that all flight were grounded. Together, we sat in the flight ops hooch and watched the towers fall.
ReplyDeletesaddest day in memory
ReplyDeleteit seems like yesterday
saw the memorial in May-it is breathtaking.....
60 minutes did a piece on the 9/11 museum, and I literally lost my shit crying.
ReplyDeleteEvery year I think I have a handle on it and it just whops you with emotions.
As someone who was in NYC that day, and saw the buildings fell from midtown. It is something that you can never ever forget. My dad was actually downtown and saw horrific things.
I pray for all the families that lost loved ones and pray no one ever has to suffer a loss like that again.
My love and prayers go out to everyone affected by 9/11/2001. I will never be able to erase the horror of that day from my memory.
ReplyDeleteMy prayers go out to the 4 Americans who lost their lives during the attack in Benghazi on 9/11//2012.
Never forget - as if anyone who was past the age of reason on that day could. All I need do is turn on any 9/11 documentary, especially on the anniversary, and 12 years later it still doesn't feel any more distant than yesterday.
ReplyDeleteI will never forget...I was in a fog that whole week in disbelief.
ReplyDeleteI will never forget that morning. I still cry whenever I see video of the towers being hit. The movie 'United 93' sends me into inconsolable waves of weeping.
ReplyDeleteGod bless the families and all the Heros that stepped forward that horrible day.
@rose blue i was a senior as well and you could see the smoke for weeks after when i went to the mall in NJ near my house.
ReplyDeleteI remember leaving school to see my grandma and they shut down the NJ turnpike, made everyone get off. And we just sat there at home and watched the news for days.
Impossible to forget. It still makes me sick with sorrow, and like so many of you, I felt dazed for weeks after and can't watch any of the tributes and documentaries without sobbing.
ReplyDeleteBenghazi is salt on that wound, especially the way it was denied to its obvious ties to September 11th; as if September 11th had no significance or could possibly be important enough to cause it.
I was in CA and it was devastating. Thinking of those of you in NYC or who were there that day. I cannot imagine how you must feel... be good to yourselves today.
I will never forget. The man who called his sister for wardrobe advice ahead of a big interview. She said wear something that makes you stand out, so you'll be remembered. He wore a yellow tie. He was in the lobby of the Marriott hotel at the base of the towers when the first plane hit. He helped comfort a woman who was badly burned by jet fuel from the impact. It was only later that he learned his sister and 4 year old neice were on that same hijacked plane, they had been on their way to Disneyland. My thoughts are with those who suffered and who are still suffering.
ReplyDeleteI was in Midtown Manhattan, just got off train at 8:50am - saw massive amounts people walking around and thought - wow the city is busy on this beautiful day... wasn't until a little while later when we all knew what was going on. Massive smoke in the air. God bless those families and those souls.
ReplyDeleteNever Forget.
ReplyDeleteThat day will be forever in my mind. I'm from NJ as well and I will never forget how beautiful of a day the weather was contrasted by the smell and view of death across the water. I was in college that day and had been literally at WTC the previous Tuesday. I would have been there on 9/11 buying tickets at TKTS if I hadn't have had to take an important test at school.
The whole world seemed to stop that morning and I still feel that sense of panic every time I see footage of the planes crashing into the WTCenters.
Too all those who have suffered & lost on this day, we will NEVER forget you or that DAY !!!
Even in Melbourne Australia, I remember getting a call waking me to turn on the news, and I joined the rest of the world looking on, in horror, at the images of 9/11. I cried then, and couldn't conceive such a thing, as I do now when I see similar horrors still happening. My heart goes out to your nation and people who were all touched and irrevocably changed by this.
ReplyDeleteI will pray for you. I know some people who suffer from multiple personality disorder like you do. They lift slang from Urban Dictionary and try to be "one of the guys" (while said guys use and abuse her and then high five each other after while she thinks it endears her to them) and then the next day behhaves like a normal human being.
DeleteWendy: thanks for your prayers. The admin on this site can see where people log in under different names and I'm one of those who logs in under a single name
DeleteI'm really offended that you would say that when my words were genuine and heartfelt. I'm an atheist so I won't pray for you, but you're really nasty and need help.
I wish the admin here would speak up for me and confirm I'm telling the truth.
I'm "nasty"? Seriously? I never thought I would live to see the day when some foul mouthed skank would tell me that I "need help" just because I call a spade a spade. Also, thanks for confirming my comment that it is really you that posts filth and not someone who hijacked your user name dumb*ss.
DeleteMy prayers go out to all the people everywhere whose lives are affected by acts of terror, war and aggression. It goes on every single day in every part of the world. Heartbreaking.
ReplyDeleteRest in peace James T. Waters, Jr., who was murdered in the terrorist attack on the World Trade Center on September 11, 2001. Rot in hell, Osama Bin Ladin.
ReplyDeleteI am sorry to tell you this: True faith can't move a mountain, we surely know what it can do to a skyscraper. How frightening.
ReplyDeleteHugs to all of us. We will always remember, and never forget.
ReplyDeleteAll of our hearts and souls hurt today.
I wish I could forget ...
ReplyDeleteThanks for doing this every year, Ent. This morning I was wondering if you would continue the tradition. It really means something.
ReplyDeleteI watched the news for days and when they had the memorial where Bush spoke, I finally cried and couldn't stop.
ReplyDeleteHow can I forget...every person on Facebook is posting shit about it today
ReplyDeleteI will never forget, still tears me up. The first time I visited the site, which was the year after around Christmas, I was completely moved. In the noisy city of NY, me and my daughter came out from the subway to complete silence (there were a lot of people, but all were quiet) at the site. It's very moving.
ReplyDelete911 taught me one thing, the human race needs to evolve and just dump religion. Science, Logic and Reason will SAVE is.Not Jesus not Mohammed or any of them. Hitchens was right religion poisons everything.
ReplyDeleteI live in the West, but I wasn't any less horrified that day. My prayers to all who had to live through it, and continue to live without a loved one.
ReplyDeleteI drove my husband to the airport this morning, don't think I didn't think twice about it!
Never will forget!!! Bomb Syria
ReplyDeleteHow could any American ever forget? The damage caused by this day has changed everyday life for Americans from the Patriot Act, airport checkpoints, to constantly fearing a terrorist attack. America will never be the same. May all those who dies that day RIP.
ReplyDeleteIt hit me hard. But I live in Kansas, so sudden devastation is not that unusual.
ReplyDeleteYears later I went to the local library and grabbed microfilm of everything from 1918 to today. Hours later I spun through the images of what happened in NYC.
I went to NYC when I was in college; I stayed with friends in Jersey. I walked Manhattan for hours every day for almost 3 weeks. Still never saw all of it; never got to Wall street but saw the most expensive stores and the Empire State building.
Once I saw what had happened, I was just as devastated as a New Yorker.
Kansas has had some seriously evil weather. But what I saw on that series of microfiche just crushed me.
The people nearby asked me if I was okay. I just got up and left. I must have looked like I'd just been shot...everyone including the lady cop at the library asked if I was okay. I was that shaken. She walked me out to my SUV.

Ironically, the two trade center tragedies "bookended" my 8year stay in NYC. I was just outside of DC when the news of the first bombing dominated the air waves. I moved there 4months later.
ReplyDeleteMy ex used to work in the 24th floor at AMEX. this was a couple years after the first bombing. He was never afraid to go there, but the one time I went to visit him I was pretty freaked.
I moved from NYC in March/April of2011. Was kinda glad I went past the trade center during my last few days in the city. Went to a Duane Reade to buy a magazine. Thank goodness I was bored that day. Had no idea that that would b the last time I'd get to go there. SMH
I lived 15 blocks north of the Trade Center on 9/11. So many memories from that day. Not looking out my windows because of the horrible sight of people jumping, then not looking out because the line of ambulances in front of my building just sat there because they had no one to save. Giving firemen water, tools, aspirin, blankets; seeing firemen from towns that were 50 miles away. People crying openly on the subway; people putting up flyers in hopes of finding survivors. It was a horrible day, week, month, but strangely I wouldn't have wanted to be anywhere else. New Yorkers are the best people on earth.
ReplyDeleteI am Canadian but I will never forget. People from many countries were lost in that building, including Canadians, it was a centre of international commerce. I think we were all changed after that day.
ReplyDeleteThe only good thing about tragedy is the proof of the resilience of the human spirit in the wake of it.
I had been to the World Trade Center in 1986. I remember saying to my friends, after that long ride up in the elevators, to the observation deck area, what happens if there is a fire? No one responded I shrugged.
Every time I see the footage from that day, especially the people jumping, it makes me cry and I can feel that pit in the stomach we all felt that day and for quite some time thereafter. I can't even imagine what it is like for the NYers who were there in the thick of it and seeing Ground Zero as a constant reminder.
What is that wonderful little movie about the little boy who loses his father played by Tom Hanks on 9-11, the messages on the voice mail, I am tearing up now just typing all this.
I then become obsessed with finding out everything out there about Al Queda and Islamists to try to understand why and understand who did this.
Let's just hope people never forget who did this and how we can't get soft or complacent.
WTF?
ReplyDeleteReally who could forget, condolences to all those affected
ReplyDeleteI remember the most horrible moment, for me, anyway. It was several days later--I think--when they lowered the official Pentagon death toll by 2. Turns out, those people weren't at the Pentagon that day. They were on one of the planes.
ReplyDeleteFor all of the death and carnage, that affected me even more. I don't understand why.
The day my life changed forever. I cannot forget.
