I remember the day like yesterday....hell all of us remember that day. It was like a left hook coming out of no where. At first I thought was a joke...someone just pulling somebody's leg. Once the news broke and journalist reported that we have been attacked by terrorist....it became reality.
I really didn't know what to think but after i saw people jumping from buildings and the towers collapsing...I felt like i was in a movie. This really can't be happening..not us..not USA..the greatest country in the world.....those were my thoughts at the time. That day I thought it would continue; didn't know whether or not if the bombing would go on or what city would next. Like other Americans I was scared and afraid that something else would happen.
Though like the Americans we are...we stood up to the challenge....we lost soooo many people; I have no clue of how they felt...but I empathize with them. We overcame, we let go of our stupid pride and ethnic background and came together. And here we are today with troops overseas protecting us from an event like we had to not happen again. No we won't forget...like Pearl Harbour...we won't forget....like the Oklahoma bombing...we won't forget and the bombing at the 96 Olympics....we won't forget....we remember those we lost...we move on and become stronger....So on today ..it's not about real estate or appraisals or lenders or title companies.. forget about yourself and remember the lives that were lost and thank the soldiers keeping us safe to live our lives.
