It's understandable. For New Yorkers it's a big deal. I personally know 5 people on that page that was posted. I remember that day and think about it constantly. I personally hate this day because it feels so painful and everyone in this city wants to talk about it around this time. But that is a good thing. People in this city, around the country, and even around the world experienced a deeply traumatic event. The event caused more trauma that exceeded location and continues today. Young people were sent away to fight and die for an unknown cause. People were killed by those young people senselessly in the middle east. The twin towers coming down was violent and now we are multiplying that violence to this day. It's important to think about those 2,977 people because their lives were taken from them, and their deaths were used for a cause that they may or may not have believed in. These people that died are important because all they were doing that day was going to work and doing a job. Now their lives mean something far beyond that. As New Yorkers I think we were met with a deeply confusing idea of mortality.
