This is the single event(history wise) in the world since i've been born that I will never forget. The first couple years I used to think about 9/11 a few times a week. I still think about it probably once a week even 7 years later. I remember where I was that day and have watched atleast 60-70 documentaries on it. I just watched "I missed Flight 93" again last night because it was on tv. There were a lot of brave people on that plane and as well as in those buildings including the firefighters who went in after the towers hit but never made it out. God bless all those who lost their lives that day.
It may be wishful thinking, but hopefully we don't see any major terrorist attacks anywhere (and even more so in the Western world) ever again. I'm not saying the West is better or more important then the rest of the world, just that every day I read the paper and a suicide bomber is blowing himself up in the Eastern part of the world so I don't see that stopping anytime soon. I wish terrorism would stop everywhere but as I said that might be wishful thinking.
I'll always remember Todd Beamer's words on Flight 93 right before they charged the cockpit to try and take the plane back:
"Let's Roll"!
