5 Years Later
Its been officially 5 years when everyone's lives had changed. I know. I decided not to be angry with anyone and mourn the loss of life that occured on this sad day. I still remember I was 16 years old watching a plane crash into the World Trade Center...my classmates telling me a plane crashed into the Pentagon...me on the floor being assisted to the bathroom...me missing most of class that day. Me telling my friends that my uncle and auntie are in that building. Watching the towers fall. I still can't believe that I lost my innocence at 8:46 that day. The worse part of it was it was such a beautiful day and I knew it. I was smiling about it. But that ended. I remembered running in Joey's arms that day. He was going to take me to his house but I refused. I went home and called Audry and Clay. Sadly, Audry lost 4 family members that day. The part that saddens me is the fact that some people have moved on or have forgotten that this day happened. I am still coming to terms with it and I am going to have a hell of a battle to explain to my kids what the hell happened. But I guess its going to be one day at a time.
