[9/11]

Nine years ago, terrorists flew planes into the Twin Towers. They were angry with America. They didn't care about the lives that were going to be lost.

Today, we remember.

Yes. I don't live in America anymore. But did you know that the terrorists were going to crash into the White House? In DC...where I lived.

Every year at school, we watched a video about 9/11. And every year, we saw an interview of people who had lost their family there.

"I am nine years old. My Mom died in the Twin Towers crash."

"My husband died trying to escape."

"My Dad survived. I believe in miracles now."

And every year, I'd walk out of the hall, my head in the clouds. The dark gray storm clouds. I imagined myself as those people, and thanked everything I knew that me and my family had survived.

We were living so close.

We could have died.
