Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: I was no where near any of the terror on September 11th 2001. I was in my living room in rural Minnesota. I have never really been out of Minnesota. My story is about how something I never saw or touched, touched me so much. I sit now and watch people like Lisa Beamer on television tell their stories of heroism. As they are interviewed, they seem so strong, so calm. While I sit and cry, head in hands. I wonder if I will ever get to the point where I can even listen to these stories without crying. Lisa is so strong, so uplifting to hear. She should be the one crying, missing her husband. Instead, she is teaching us, the people who have no relation to anyone that killed that day how to be strong. September 11th, 2001 my brothers and sisters were murdered. I never met them, they never knew me, but I feel like I will mourn them forever. September 11th will always make my eyes tear, my heart hurt, and my mood somber. This morning, September 11th, 2002 I was afraid to turn on the T.V. when I woke up. I didn't want to hear of any more terror. When I finally turned on the television, I saw what WAS terror, what is now love, hope, and togetherness! I got in my car to go to work, God Bless America was on the radio, I was proud! I went to work, put up two American flags...I cried. If you think back to September 10th, 2001, can you remember what you were like? Do you remember that you didn't hold your family as tight, you didn't respect religion like you do now, things were different. Now, 366 days later...you are changed..for the better. GOD BLESS AMERICA!! Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
