Title A name given to the resource "September 11: Bearing Witness to History" Stories Submitted Online Description An account of the resource Visitors to the Smithsonian National Museum of American History's, "Bearing Witness to History" online exhibition submitted these reflections beginning in 2002. NMAH Story NMAH Story: Story How did you witness history on September 11th? Share your experience. On Tuesday, September 11, 2001 I was in school. It was just like any other day. Woke up, ate breakfast, brushed my teeth, you know like every other day. Around 8:30 AM we were in 1st hour, Social Studies when our secretary walked in the room and whispered something to our teacher. Then he turned on the TV explaining what had happened. I didn't know what hit me. I was speechless. NMAH Story: Life Changed Has your life changed because of September 11, 2001? If so, tell us how. My life hasn't really changed much since September 11th. Just here and there. I don't take every day for granted like I used to. I realized how lucky I am to have my mom and dad and my brother with me. I thank God for every day that I wake up and I live life to the fullest. Now I know my life can be snatched with each breath I take. NMAH Story: Remembered What do you think should be remembered about September 11th? I think the heroes, and the people should be remembered. Everyone who helped in any way is a hero. Our class last year did a school project to donate the money to Afghanistan children who were in need. "Spare Change Can Change the World" was what we called it. I felt so good after we did that. NMAH Story: Flag Did you fly an American flag after the events of September 11th? Have your feelings about the American flag changed as a result of September 11th? Well, our family sort of flew a flag after September 11th. We hung a little flag from the bottom of the bird house and we flew a American flag windsock from our garage light. Yes, I now respect the American Flag more. It represents Us, the people that didn't give up hope, "One Nation Under God".
