9/11: A remembrance

I was born in NYC and grew up in NJ. I was in Colorado on 09/11/2001 watching the TODAY show when the planes hit. It still brings tears to my eyes and leaves me with an empty feeling. It was the start of a new way of thinking about how unsafe our world truly was.

I always thought Bruce Springsteen's The Rising -both the album and the actual song - expressed the sorrow, fears, and emotions of 9/11 the best. Leave it to a boy from the Jersey Shore .
