User blog:Starscream7/Remembering September 11

Hello, everyone. As usual, I haven't been on here recently and this is the first blog post I'm making in a while. You probably read the title of this post either being pleased that someone acknowledged it, or thinking that it's completely off-topic. If you think it's off-topic, very well - it's right for me to say this.

As you hopefully already know, today is the fourteenth annivesary of the terrorist attacks that occured on September 11, 2001. These attacks resulted in the destruction of the World Trade Center complex, the devasation of the Pentagon, and the loss of thousands of lives. It is a tragedy that affects us to this day, whether you see it or not. I was only three years old at the time of the event, so I have no true recollection of what happened. But my Dad was in New York at the time and was also directly involved in the horrible events that took place - and I have heard his story many times, learning new things as the years go on. In my mind, it is my duty to ensure the remembrance people must hold for the events of September 11, 2001 - regardless of whether or not they or anyone they know, or sadly knew, were involved in it. It is something that should truly never be forgotten. People may underestimate the scale or impact of the event, or even go so far as to make jokes about it.

If you would, please, take a moment to commemorate those lost during the events of September 11, 2001.
