Black Ribbon

It is hard to believe that it has been 12 years since that morning I woke up in a dorm room at Wellesley to the alarm on my TV/radio. Katie Couric was reporting breaking news; a plane had flown into the World Trade Center. I called my mother, and we both watched as the second plane hit the Towers; realizing that this was not an accident, but an attack. It was the most surreal moment of my life.

Never forget.
