911 Memorial

Honestly, from what I remember I didn't even know what the tragic event known as 911 was, til I was about 8 years old. My sister's told me about it, because I always heard it come up on the news every time it was September, 11, etc.... I couldn't believe anybody could plan something so destructive, I couldn't believe someone would do such a thing. If I Recall, I was about 3 years old when this event occurred. It was one of the most destructive events for the US, in my opinion, ever since the attacks on Pearl Harbor. With a cost of over $10 billion in property and infrastructure damage, and claiming the lives of over 3,000 individuals, it was certainly a very tragic event. 


 - The Twins towers after the attack.


- A memorial for those who lost their lives on this tragic event.


- People rescued but covered in dust and residue caused by the fall of the towers.
 

- The towers fall and kick up huge amounts of smoke and dust into the air. Fires Break out..........



Lastly, in my opinion, it makes me very sad and dissapointed, to see this once happened in history, to have claimed so many innocent lives, to have caused so much damage. I could imagine someone who lost a family member or someone they knew in this event, how would they feel? The feeling is Utter sadness, and Silence, because they know they will never see they're loved one ('s) again, because they never said goodbye, because they weren't warned. I give a huge amount of sympathy, for those who feel this way, or who have felt this way. Everyone will remember this day from now on, the neglect, the ignorance, the damage, all caused by Terrorism, Hopefully our country, may never follow this form of ignorance, because just by looking at 911, there is more than just property damage, but the claiming of innocent lives, but more than that, the impact it brings on society and our world as a whole.
