9/11

9/11 may not mean the same to me as it means to every American but it is still a milestone to me. I came to the US exactly 10 years ago, 2 weeks before 9/11. I never saw the twin towers but keep all victims and their families in my heart. I cannot begin to imagine how an ordinary Tuesday morning could turn into such a life changing tragedy. As I am watching the memorial on TV, my eyes tear for those who lost loved ones. I can't begin to imagine how devastating this is.

The daughter of a victim shared her mother's words and they resonate so much with me:

"Love yourself. Love life. Don't let any day go to waste."
