6 years ago, on this day, we saw the world's so-called "super-power" country brought to its knees...
6 years ago, on this day, we witnessed the deaths of many innocent lives, all for the sake of a so-called "holy war"...
6 years ago, on this day, we were reminded that even the strongest, can be weak...


6 years ago, on this day, we also saw the same friggin' clip of the airliner crash into the WTC Towers 1,000 times on TV ...

Yup, September 11. It changed how we viewed this world, how governments handle terrorism, changed the way we lived.

I was in Air Force School at the time, training for my NS. This incident sparked a huge concern in security, and tons of contingencies and fail safes popped out to protect the country.

Meant more work for me in NS, more "shit" to handle....

6 years down, even though the event is slowly fading from our memories (but i bet not from history books, this is an unprecedented event), one thing's for sure...the world is different now.

Better? Safer? I dunno.
More paranoid? Suspicous? Yes.

To those who perished in the unfortunate incident, may your souls be at peace.
