Ten years ago today I was filled with happiness and the anticipation of my 1st anniversary in a few days with my bride. Little did I know that in just a few hours I would experience the most incredible images, feelings of anger, remorse, and pain. As that morning unfolded on that terrible day I was watching the TV and drinking coffee when the screen filled with images I could not believe. Not since Pearl Harbor I suppose had America experienced something of this nature and we did not know how to react. The billowing smoke coming from that pile of rubble, watching people jump from windows tens of stories from the ground and then the crumbling of that tower knowing that real people were within – it sent emotions through my body never before experienced. Firefighters, police, and everyday men, women, and children all snuffed from life within minutes.
I also remember the ground swell of pride in country. The unity, the best of the best coming forward to help, and the focus to right the ship. Too bad politicians with their political correctness could not use common sense and blow the bastards to hell and back, make that part of the country sand dunes and rid the world of the pain and suffering they have caused in the ten years following.
Remember, bring those images back into your mind, and never forget.
