9/11 Tribute

Sunday 11 September 2011

Today is September 11th and to most of us just another regular Sunday... But for some a day that will be remembered for ever! A decade ago around 8:46 a.m. (PST) a plane crashed into the North Tower of the well-known World Trade Centre, in New York City... People just couldn't believe their eyes... The chaos settled immediately.. There was people running in the streets, running away from the wreckage caused by the plane crash, the fire fighters rushing towards the WTC and people leaping from the higher section of the tower... When it was thought that it couldn't get any worse, 17 minutes later a second plane crashes into the South Tower and the nightmare gets even worse! I don't care about the reasons why this happened, all that matters to me is that people died... a lot of people died, even more people were desolated by the lost of their loved ones. Some died fighting for their lives, others trying to save the human lives that, in that time, seemed so fragile... Just watch this video.. It kind of makes us think about life...

Ups! I was so happy with the post I forgot to tell you that I've enjoyed it a lot, although it is very sad and shocking. You're right it makes us think about how life is so fragile and makes us wonder how human beings can do this to other human beings.
