A day of remembrance

I was in a physiology class listening to lecture. The heart and blood flow in each chamber.The class ended and chaos was in the air as we walked into the hall. There on the television in the dean's office was the World Trade Center engulfed in a plume of smoke and flame. The anchor was mid sentence and out of the corner of the screen a miniature plane flew into the other tower and a burst of fire erupted. 400 students and professors stood aghast unable to comprehend what was happening. That day the world changed for 3000+ people at the World Trade Center and every other American watching this tragedy unfold.

May I say my heart goes out to all the people who have lost someone to this horrible act of terrorism. Our world has never been the same. On days like today, I am terribly sad and still angry. Five years and it the wound is still bleeding open.
