I also remember during the broadcast on the radio at work the announcement that a plane had been shot down in Pennsylvania. It wasn't long before that story changed, but I personally do believe it. It doesn't change the bravery of those on board, though. Those people did what needed to be done.SJerZGirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15888500576418777324noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3028902712658025433.post-84812769257474661332011-09-15T14:44:58.743-05:002011-09-15T14:44:58.743-05:00I remember well the vulnerable feelings I had that...I remember well the vulnerable feelings I had that day.

Before 9-11 most Americans never would have believed an attack like that could have happened in our country. I think most people felt immune. 9-11 changed that and broke the bubble. We realized how unsafe and vulnerable we were.<br /><br />Kathy<br />http://gigglingtruckerswife.blogspot.com/Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11564863484894692249noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3028902712658025433.post-3257163239121874762011-09-13T23:08:25.167-05:002011-09-13T23:08:25.167-05:00A day we will all remember.

Watching newscasters cry, people jumping from the twin tower windows in desperation, people walking out of the dust after the towers fell. A very painful time in our history but we will all be forever bonded.

I was a reporter for nine years. What I learned in that time is that despite being told to be objective, we are only human. At the time of the attack, I was living in upstate NY and my folks were in Brooklyn. After getting a call from my Dad specifically to say that he and Mom were okay, I began watching the events unfold. Even though I knew they were safe, I lost it and called my editor saying I needed to take time to go to NYC to be with my family. I didn't go, because I was counseled not to -- among other reasons because the city went on lockdown and it was not going to be possible to get in from outside -- which probably worked out better. But it was hard as hell to hold it together and keep reporting. One of the reasons I quit the news business -- my mind and heart couldn't take all the bad news. Great post. It affected me deeply.Daphnehttp://www.musementsandamusements.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3028902712658025433.post-33857355549068007122011-09-12T04:53:22.410-05:002011-09-12T04:53:22.410-05:00I think we can all remember just where we were whe...I think we can all remember just where we were when we first heard or saw the events of 9/11 (and not just people in America either, since I'm in the UK).Paula Martinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10040623635956769807noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3028902712658025433.post-9145642812412642552011-09-12T00:29:42.247-05:002011-09-12T00:29:42.247-05:00So powerful....I remember where I was that day, to...So powerful....I remember where I was that day, too, and how indescribable it felt to watch the events unfold.
