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..

I remember exactly where I was when I heard what happened.

I was still in school, and I was studying computer science.

I walked into my classroom, and one of the traditional aged students said

A plane just crashed into the Pentagon.

I thought, Great. He can't tell the difference between real life and a video game, and

Obviously he was right, and as soon as our teacher got to the classroom,

He told us more about what happened, and very shortly after that,

All classes were cancelled.

I was desperate to reach my mother and my sister, and the rest of my family in New York City, and

I couldn't get through, but

When I got home, I discovered that

My mother had been able to leave me a message on my answering machine.

There was no telephone service in or out of New York City after that for about three days, but

I was so grateful and so relieved that my mother had been able to get through.

I knew that my sister, her husband, and my cousin were all right, but not about anyone else.

I remember driving home from school and listening to the radio, and

The reporters talked about how people were jumping out the towers, and

I was so shocked and so upset by this.

I hadn't seen any images yet, but I could see what was happening in my mind's eye.
