For reasons I can't go into, that was one of the scariest days of my family's lives. Won't ever forget that day. I don't say much about it, try to not publicly mourn it, because seeing mourners remembering gives ALL those anti-American terrorists, the world over, a thrill.
To us it's a sad day in history. To them it's a public holiday of rejoicing. I don't want to give them any reason at all to continue rejoicing over it. So mostly, I just remember in silence. This is the only place online that I've said anything about it at all. I sure didn't show my face publicly at any of the ceremonies.
