9/11
I went through the day, bored as usual with life. Why doesn't anything exciting happen? And thats when i realized. Its 9/11. I'd rather there was no excitement on such a day. A day which changed everything for Muslims around the globe. The day when millions lost their lives. The day when world politics took a dangerous somersault through the air. America=1, Us=0
They strike again.
Politics aside, I can never forget that fatal day. I was in grade 5. I used to sit with Marium Nadeem and I remember very well the discussion we had about the whole WTC towers collapsing. Funny how one remembers meaningless little things like it was a P.T day. We were in our P.T uniforms.Going home on 11th of Sep and finding the T.v switched on. The horrific video showing the airplane crashing into the buildings, playing over and over until i memorized every little detail. Like the woman in red, screaming wildly and a small child looking more amazed than scared. Hundreds of people running wildly around. Smoke everywhere. And i remember thinking.
"How did they know that the plane would crash into the buildings so that they had been sitting with their cameras poised waiting to capture the scene."
I never really understood.All I know is , that peoples' attitude towards us Muslims changed. We became terrorists. Junglis. Inhuman.
and so lies the case.
may all the victims of the 9/11 tragedy rest in peace.
