For me September 11th 2001 was a huge beaking point in my life. Even though I live in Chicago, I visited most places relted to the tragedy just a month before it happened (I went to Pittsburgh, then to Boston and New York). Before 9-11 I was perfectly content about my shyness. I figured life was easier if you just separate yourself from other people and live your own quiet life. Then I realzed that one moment you're sitting in the apparent safety of an office, away from all the danger in the world, just minding your own business, and the next moment your clothes are on fire and you make a decision whether to die by jumping out the 100-story window or burning. I often wonder how the shy people felt in the WTC when the planes struck? Did they think that they wasted their life away?
After 9-11 I keep thinking that death can strike us any time anywhere. Because of that, I hate my shyness, which prevents me from living life to the fullest.
God bless the victim's souls and my heart will always be with their relatives. I think this is about the time when the second plane struck, so I encourage everyone to have a moment of silence now.
