Today, 11 years ago, America took a blow when two passenger jets crashed into the sides of the World Trade Center Towers I and II.

On that day America and the world lost 2,996 lives; lives of those who were dearly loved by someone, lives of people who could have changed the world. Now, 11 years, later we once again reflect back on this tragic day.

With ceremonies all over the world dedicated to 9-11 remembrance, New York City will hold the traditional reading of all names lost in the tragedy. It is on this day that we would like to remember all the lives we lost and to thank our troops that have given their lives to our nation’s freedom.

    9/11 had farther reaching consequences than just the raw amount of people lost on that tragic day. The emotional impact that it had on the U.S. was very dramatic. I don't know this from experience, since I was only 4 years old when this horrible event took place, but my mother has gotten emotional even speaking about 9/11. A true American Tragedy.

    September 11, 2001 was a very tragic day, not only for New York, but for the whole nation. Its already been 11 years but for some people the pain is still there. It is a good thing to remember all the lives lost and respect all the people who gave their lives to save others.
