NMAH Story NMAH Story: Story How did you witness history on September 11th? Share your experience. On September 11, I was working at my office. Like new York - I´m living at Dortmund/Germany - it was a very beautiful day. Bautyful until I saw a very small article at my news ticker. i thought an accident has happend. But than..., the second plane hit the WTC. I stopped working. Until 20 h (cet) I tried to watch all news I could receive with a girlfriend and her husband at their house. Unable to speak unable to think clearly. On my way home by subway all the people around me where talking, loughing, or just smiling because they had been shopping or working, not knowing what has happend. I felt that something has happend to the world and my life that hasn´t happend to them. Imagined that it will only take a view minutes until they are at their homes and their lives where changed too, forever. Mightless. Sleepless for many days. All those lost lives, this senseless act. NMAH Story: Life Changed Has your life changed because of September 11, 2001? If so, tell us how. The rememberence hurts in my head. It hurts but I hope I won´t lose it for my whole live. I do not want to forget any second of this day, maybe one day I am able to accept the fact that this act of terrorism has really happend but I know even than I will be unable to understand why. NMAH Story: Remembered What do you think should be remembered about September 11th? Everything should be remembered. New York, Washington, the passengers and crew of the Airplanes. every human beeing should remember his/ her feelings of this day. But can you remember how peaceful live was on September 10? Today it seems to be imagination. 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?
