    17 years later and I remember like it was yesterday. Never forget.

    I remember being at my desk (safe at work in Indiana) and listening to Bob and Tom on the radio.  When the first plane hit we kind of blew it off like a freak accident.  I remember discussions about how it was a small plane, etc. that must have just really screwed up.  Then the second plane hit.

    Really bizarre day that I'll never forget...like everyone else.

    So difficult to believe it has been 18 years since this tragic event.  It truly changed the world.

    I've posted this before on the boards. 17 years now.

    On July 8th, 2003, Pearl Jam played NYC (MSG) for the first time since 9-11-01. Before "I Am Mine", Eddie had this to say:

    “If I could just say, as a representative of the group, I just wanted to tell you that this is the first time that we’ve been here since that big day ago about a year and a half ago. Seemed to change everybody. We were on the opposite coast in Seattle and everybody felt it and we felt it and we had just been through Denmark the year before and we certainly knew what it felt to see loss of life and to feel it deeply. I know how many people, each life affected. So I’m taking the opportunity now, a year and a half later, since it’s the first time we’ve been back proper, just to tell you we were all thinking about you and we think you handled yourselves so great. This song, this song’s about personal safety and the feeling of being secure and even free. It’s called, “I Am Mine”.”

    Hard to believe it was over 10 years ago. I vividly remember this emotional feeling coming over me as he spoke and I still get chills when I hear it today.

    God bless all who lost their lives that day and the families and friends affected.
    You should post this everywhere.  This is the first time I’ve read it so thanks. He knows how to say what he means and he always tugs at your heart....I will never forget....

    She is believed to have been the last surviving dog from the 9/11 attacks when she was euthanized in Texas in 2016; she was 16 years old and suffering from kidney failure.[1][9] As Bretagne entered the animal hospital in Cypress, Texas, firefighters and search and rescue workers from the fire department lined the sidewalk and saluted. She was carried out later, her body draped in an American flag.[10]

    I looked her up bless the ANIMALS everywhere they are so intune with the world

    I have vivid memories of that day and the fear and uncertainty that followed.   It really did change the way we lived forever.  

    I remember being at the U2 concert about a month later at MSG and the band scrolled all the names of the victims during the show.  It was a very powerful and emotional few moments.  

    I remember the fear that was palpable in public places especially at big events. People were convinced that there was going to be another attack. It was just a matter of when.   I was at Yankee Stadium for every playoff game and World Series game that fall.  Those were some of the most exciting games I’ve ever seen but it was surreal to be at a game where everyone is focused on the game until a plane flew overhead and 50,000 people would look up and watch until it passed.  This would happen every time a plane flew over.  It was really crazy. Although I wasn’t a W fan, seeing the president appear at Yankee Stadium during the World Series and stand out on the field was something everyone in the city needed to see.  He really projected a lot of confidence when we needed it most.  I really recommend the 9 Innings From Ground Zero documentary.  It does a great job of capturing what was going on in the city that fall and how people felt.  I rewatch it every year and it chokes me up every time.  There are some very poignant stories shared.  It’s posted on YouTube.  

    Anyway.... this is a tough day but it also inspirers me to remember all the courageous people that stepped up that day and acted so selflessly.

    Wow. I just finished watching thank you for sharing. I balled my eyes out and makes me miss the times before cell phones when people lived fully in the moment. You'll never get that feeling again now cuz everyone around you is trying to video or take pics instead of high fiving even in the most surreal moments. Crazy.

    I’ve seen it a dozen times and it always chokes me up.  The personal stories are very moving.  I like the part with Bush recounting how Derek Jeter told him not to bounce the ball when he threw out the first pitch or the crowd would boo him.  Bush’s reaction to that was priceless and always provides some much needed levity.

    So sorry for all and hope when we go, we find out none of this earth stuff matters. Love your friends, family and strangers while we are here.

    Be kind and considerate...and others will reflect that even in a small way we may not notice.
    If not, at least you can be one more good person on this planet.

    RIP all that suffered. And peace to all that still suffer today.
