Remembering 9/11: A Day That Changed the World (and Our Pants Sizes)

9/11 - Al-Qaeda - Emergency Preparedness - Global Awareness - Memorial Events - Political Responses - September 11 - Terrorism - 9/11 attack

As we pause for 9/11, let’s laugh through the tears at some serious memories and a dash of absurdity!

Each year, as September 11th rolls around, we remember the day when the skies turned dark and our lives changed forever. The tragic events of that fateful day in 2001, when four passenger planes were hijacked by al-Qaeda terrorists, remain etched in our memories. Nearly 3,000 lives were lost, and the heartache reverberates even now, 23 years later. Cities across the globe observe this somber day, and within some of our chaotic routines, a feeling of unity and remembrance rises to the surface. Some might even say it’s like watching your neighbor pour a fresh batch of biltong – strangely comforting, but definitely a reminder we all grew up to know.
