10 Years. 10 long years have passed since that fateful day. 10 years filled with pain, sorrow, anger and sometimes even fear. It started with one person and one group. Osama Bin Laden and Al Qaeda. It started with trying to "knock America off it's high pedestal". To show us we were not invulnerable. But all that did was bring us closer. It didnt matter what age you were, what race, the religion you belonged to, on that day we watched as loved ones perished and others survived. We heard the horrifying and chilling phone calls from the planes and from the towers. Our bubble was broken and reality began to set in. We went to work and to school with tears in our eyes and fear in our hearts. We were pushed down but now 10 years later we are standing back up. We are showing the world that America though injured badly will recover. Maybe not fully but we have recorvered. 10 years later we are standing on our feet showing we are stronger than we appear. 10 years later we still mourn the loss of our loved ones. 10 years later the two bright lights signify that we may fall but we will rise. On September 11th of this year all of us will stand at Ground Zero, watching the tears of family members fall and hearing the names of the fallen but we will have grown. On that day we will lift our heads to the sky and see the faces our loved ones smile at us saying they are ok and happy. On September 11th all of America will stand together and watch as names are called but this time we will have our heads raised.
R.I.P those who loste their lives that died that day
