Today marks the 11th anniversary of the September
11th attacks at the world trade center in New York in 2001. On this
fateful and horrible day to many across the United States and the world at
large, people including myself sitting in front of this PC couldn't fathom what
happened and why that happened.
It has been 11 good years and people are stilling
feeling the impact of that day. Many people lost their husbands, wives, children,
grandchildren etc. It was literally a day of reckoning if you want or an
embodiment of an Armageddon. The world trade center which was a monument of the
financial capital of the US/The World was destroyed to the grounds, steels and
beams were turned in to huge balls of fire amongst others. People fleshes were torn
and scattered into pieces as they struggle to escape the horror, some even
jumped with desperation from the very top of the towers. Did they deserve such
a death? Gross innocence to say the least.
But whoever was responsible for such heartless act against
humanity obviously would be answerable to God for it. All I can do is to pray those
departed souls to and those of many other innocent people who had to lose their
lives through the hands of evil driven folks may have eternal rest. A woman
from Ghana was there; she just migrated to the US and got a job there as a
janitor, hoping to make some money to get her into school. And only God knows
the rest of the story and why it was the way it was.
Well, in the end, almost 3000 lives were lost;
properties worth billions of dollars were gone. Even the cost of medical care
for responders alone cost a fortune. And as resilient as the US is, alongside
the state of NY, the towers are on their way to reconstruction, just to mimic what
was pulled down after completion. This time, it might even be greater than
those destroyed at ground zero. God have mercy on man and the lost souls.
