Growing up in today's society, where everything is splashed on the news - everything from grisly murders to teenagers going to their school for a shooting spree - I thought I had seen everything there was to see. I thought there was nothing left in the world that could shock me. I was wrong.
Tuesday ~ September 11, 2001 was just like any other day. I left the house by nine a.m. for classes without ever turning on my television. I've grown to live without the entertainment, so I don't bother turning the thing on. Just before class started at nine twenty-five that morning, my professor informed the class there had been a plane crash. Evidently a small commercial jet had crashed into one of the World Trade Center buildings. At the time, no one was near a television so no one knew of the second plane. The class went on to talk about if it was an accident or not. By the time I got out of class at ten forty, things had really started to fall apart. Both buildings of the World Trade Center had been hit by small commercial jets and the buildings were collapsing.
It was almost a surreal moment, watching these two magnificent buildings implode and fall to the group. To me, they were infallible, therefore they couldn't fall. The twin towers had withstood other attacks. I couldn't believe it. I didn't want to believe it.
I didn't have time to go look for a television because I had to show up for my work study position and fill the hours between ten forty-five and one thirty with work before my next class. Fortunately, the University pulled a couple of televisions into the Fish Bowl (one of the largest rooms on campus right next door to my office) and allowed anyone in to watch CNN Breaking News.
I watched those buildings collapse with a growing sense of dread, knowing everything as we see it would change. The United States had been attacked by terrorists. And this time, the death toll was staggering.
Days later, when the news reports began to shift to the investigations the government was running, I found myself to be deeply ashamed. A couple of the terrorists who hijacked one of the planes from Boston had entered into the United States through the Maine/Canadian border and had probably traveled through Fort Kent, a town not more than twenty miles from where I reside.
That Friday, at seven p.m., I walked out of work with most of my co-workers and lit a candle in memoriam of those who have suffered the most. I didn't know what else to do. Friends had been near the WTC when the whole chaotic episode happened, even another webmaster and friend (Dev) was in the building when the plane hit. Though all of them are all right, I can't help but think of those who didn't make it with a few minor injuries, or a few major injuries for that matter. I can't help but think about the people I see on the news, begging viewers to contact them if they've seen their loved ones.
There isn't much I can do from Maine, except post this page in memoriam of all the victims and survivors of this tragic ordeal. To all of you, you have my deepest sympathy, my prayers and my love.
United we stand, divided we fall.
If you'd like more information on any of the news coverage of the World Trade Center/Pentagon tragedies, there are links at the bottom of the page as well as a few other links I have found helpful in coping with the loss of so many people.
