I am nervous in large target buildings that are iconic to the West. How will you remember the 10th anniversary of the September 11 attacks? form question I think I remembered this via a mention on the radio. I was disinclined to watch people's ongoing trauma so I chose not to watch the news or associated news media on the event. Referred to by Where did you hear about the website?

How has your life changed because of what happened on September 11, 2001? form question My life has changed because of September 11 as it has made me realise how lucky I am to be living in a world amongst people who care for the feelings of not only the American people but the world people in general. Not only has it made me reflect on the loss of my family and friends, it has made me reflect on the thousands of lives lost on that fateful day and it is comforting to know that I am not the only one who is going through pain but is also discomforting thinking about the thousands of families around the world that are still, up to this day, hurting from 9/11. It makes me sad to think that there are people out there in the world that would go out of there was to harm people and in this case a nation to simply pass on a message that could have been delivered peacefully and not through an act of terrorism. How will you remember the 10th anniversary of the September 11 attacks? form question I remembered the events of the September 11 attacks through organising memorial services attended by the community I live in and also retelling a few stories of witnesses on that day to give people a variety of perspectives on the events and to show them how memory can alter history and trigger a certain emotion in the individual. Through the constant prayers, celebration of peoples lives and memorial of that day, I will and always remember the attacks of September 11. Referred to by Where did you hear about the website?

How has your life changed because of what happened on September 11, 2001? form question 9/11 is forever now a part of our everyday life & soul. When I hear those numbers,they mean the day our country's heart was broken. I've not changed as the terrorists intended,becoming a hateful,fearful person. I've grown to love my country even more & all that she stands for. I'm not as naive as I once was, and no longer accept that those who would do such serious harm can be reasoned with as civilised people. I don't trust as much as I did but I also love more those who truly stand for good positive values in life. How will you remember the 10th anniversary of the September 11 attacks? form question As I write this,the 11th anniversary will be coming up in a couple of months. I spent that day alone,watching some memorial on TV. I wasn't able to do that until about 4 yrs. ago as it was too painful. I cried & sat in inspired awe as I listened to reports of stories I'd not heard,about the bravery & commitment of so many people to help each other. God bless the USA & those who live as she does. Imperfect though we may be in many ways,we've been a great nation & I thank God to be here! Referred to by Where did you hear about the website?

How has your life changed because of what happened on September 11, 2001? form question When this event happened I was in the second grade. I was about 6 or 7. I rememeber it was morning work and I seen the scared look on my teachers faces I really didn't think anything of it so I went back into doing my work. A couple minutes later they told us to get our belongings and wait for our parents to pick us up. At that time I was asking questions asking what's going on. My mother picked me up and we went home and my great grandmother had on the T.V and I couldn't believe me eyes I thought it was something in a movie. Being a 7 year old your gonna be confussed asking "why is the building on fire?" My mother explained everything to me and I was scared to death I wouldn't even go upsairs to use the bathroom because I though something was gonna get me. My life has changed from 9\11 by living one day at a time. Not to sweat the small things because life is to short. R.I.P to those who lost their life that day.

How has your life changed because of what happened on September 11, 2001? form question I have become increasingly concerned about the restrictions imposed on Americans and people of foreign origin entering the country or just trying to get along, in the name of Homeland Security. Instead of uniting people it borders on paranoia, raises undue suspicion, promotes hatred and bigotry. The long term incarceration without due process at Guantanamo and other places is the worst example. People living in a constant state of fear is how we used to portray the Soviet bloc. American fear has spread across the West. It's not a good way to live for Americans or anyone.

How has your life changed because of what happened on September 11, 2001? form question I was laid off from my work on Sept. 11, 2001. I was living in Tarrs, PA when the flight 93 flew over my house and crashed in Somerset. I have never really spoke of it untill now...I remember waking up, going downstairs and turning on the tv. I watched the broadcast of the first tower on fire and then a jet-airliner slammed into the second tower (I watched that live feed). Then they were saying about the Pentagone getting hit. I was wondering what the hell was going on in the world all of a sudden. And I was thinking that my position on the Earth's surface put me pretty much smack dab in the middle of the two places that were being targeted (New York and Washington D.C.). I was a little to the West but in the middle non-the-less. THEN they started blaring about the one in Somerset, PA and I started looking up toward the sky and thinking Good Lord are they going to crash through my house, next? Somerset, Penna is about, oh, I say about a half hour drive..Or about 3 mins as the terrorrists fly from my former place. I never actually saw the plane go over my house....talked to some that said they did see it.... How will you remember the 10th anniversary of the September 11 attacks? form question I remember that many Americans died in the course of their duty. A vast majority of those that are fallin had no choice. There were a lot of people that burned to death, jumped to their doom (falling 80 stories or more), and/or were killed on impact...They shall never be forgotten.

I remember wondering why my teacher was crying and why all the adults seemed to be so frantic. Our teachers were not allowed to tell us what happened because they didn’t want to scare us. When I got home my mom was watching the news (which she never does) and I saw a burning building on TV. I asked my mom what the big deal was, it was just another fire, it happens all the time. It wasn’t until years later when I would fully understand what that burning building meant to our country and how America changed forever that day.
