Can’t believe it’s been 20 years…..9/11/2001

Yesterday was the 20th anniversary since that tragic, heartbreaking day for America. I was only 11 going on 12 when this happened. Our bus driver wanted us to be quiet so she can hear the on the radio about the World Trade Center. I think her teacher showed us on the TV. I don’t remember but when we first saw it we were in shock. So horrible and terrifying. I’m still trumatized from it to this day. Sending prayers to those who lost their family and friends on that horrible day.

I was your age(now). I hope I never have to go through anything like that again. Actually, I hope no one has to.

@HannahSky Yes. I actually played a wedding reception, of all things, yesterday. If you're curious, check that post out. It was supremely moving, but in a hopeful way.

@uncalled4 such a curious day for a wedding

@HannahSky It was rescheduled 3 times due to Covid. I imagine they got a deal on that date! There were a plethora of remembrances happening simultaneously with police everywhere.
