Audi, my third graders asked me what terrorists were this morning. I said they are groups that hate and kill innocent people. I couldn't answer the "why" question that followed it.

It is very hard to make sense of things that, well, don't make sense. Why don't they realize that the only thing they achieve is murder?

The only way to describe these people,
"...some men aren't looking for anything logical, like money. They can't be bought, bullied, reasoned, or negotiated with. Some men just want to watch the world burn." I remember the day distinctly, I was too young to know what it meant, but I remember my mother crying, and reaching out to hold me.

What they have done at Ground Zero is absolutely beautiful and amazing. al-Queda should see this and know that they will never defeat the United States or the forces of Love. The National September 11 Memorial and Museum - http://www.911memorial.org/

I was on a job interview that day. I had already secured a position at Dell, but I got a call with another company -- so I went just to explore my options. When I got to the office, folks were kinda whispering, looking shocked. I thought maybe some office drama had gone down. But their chatter went on and on as I was waiting on my interviewer. Then it finally occurred to me that something major happened. I approached them and said: "I have clearly missed something." They told me. I blew the interview, needless to say. On my way back home, car-horns were blowing; flags were waving. That was the first time I'd ever experienced national unity in its fullest sense.

I stood out in the parking lot at work at 2nd shift 9pm break overlooking the city from one of the highest elevation points in town. All commercial planes were grounded. Not a plane in the sky. There was a sense of fear and uncertainty in the air. I remember thinking that...No One...should ever have to feel this way.

I live in the UK but I remember exactly what I was doing, where I was sat and everything about seeing the terrible story unfolding live on the news.
