Where were you?

Where was I?

Freshman year of high school. We were sitting in band when Mr. McGrath told us that we needed to listen to the radio news.  I remember hearing that there was a terrorist attack in New York.  I had no idea what that really meant - to be honest.  I was shocked that there was an attack in the USA. I just remember being in shock.  Then in the rest of my classes we watched the TV all day.  Seeing the pictures, I just broke down.  I remember going home and just sitting there.  Confused, scared, hurt. Why would they do this to the United States?  I just didn't get it.

I remember the patriotic feelings everyone felt for a few years after.  But it seems like its all gone.

I am proud to be an American. How about you? What do you remember about that day 10 years ago?

this is patriotic!! Love this song!
