ENG 101-DAILY BLOG 9-11
As I sit here, once more a day late, I do remember what I
was going to freewrite about. I don’t know if it is necessarily a subject we
are supposed to write about here but nevertheless I am going to get my thoughts
of yesterday off my chest. Yesterday was September 11th, we all know
what happened that horrible day. What I was wondering was about the babies born
that day, and for the sake of the discussion, the babies born since, but specifically
the babies born on 9-11. What will their family tell them about that day? How will
the attack be memorialized the same day as someone’s birthday? I know that people
are born on good and bad days but it being that date, and having lived through
that as an American Veteran, I was thinking of these babes specifically. How
many were born to missing fathers, or other family involved. And were any
family directly involved saved? Wondering about babies born on 9-11 down
through history, will they be affected by the telling of the tragedy or will
the significance of this day even be remembered like we do today or even more
ten years ago. My son and daughter were both born in 2001. One was born before
September and on after. I think as time goes by I might want to explain to them
the importance of that day, the day that Liberty took a hit and still was
determined to carry on.
