Today we went to the Pentagon Memorial. There were so many benches representing everyone that had died that day. It was a lot to take in. Each bench had a name on it. It was very emotional to see all of the damage that had been done on that day and in our lifetime. So many people were crying. It is hard to believe what happened that day actually happened. And the fact that we were standing where the plane had landed made it even worse. There was a person there that was our age that had died in the plane. I think that it is good for us to grieve, but we have to live for the ones that weren’t able to and tell the story of the brave people that died on that plane and in that building that day. Their bodies may have died but their memory and their story stays alive. And they did NOT die in vain.
