Seeing and listening to the children of the victims, 10 years later, the families and friends. I remember American Flags flying from every pillar and post after 9/11

and the memorials today, it is still so surreal. I remember getting ready for work and having the TV on as it happened. The stories of all the families surviving, the first responders now getting ill, and we remember. Paul Simon sings the Sound of Silence at the crowds gather around the names of their loved ones carved in the Word Trade Center Memorial, and the water flows in the footprint of where their loved ones died.

The commemorative ringing of the bells as the North Tower falls, and the reality of what happened and how all of our lives were affected.
I went out in the early morning light, and teary eyed, as I draped Our Flag in memory of those I never met, but feel related to, borne by our stars and stripes forever..
