"A Day That Will Live In Infamy"

September 11, 2001
I'm watching a program that chronicles the seven days starting on Tuesday September 11, 2001 on A&E right now.

A New Perspective
I thought I had a grip of what really happened that day, but this program has sure shed a personalized light that I didn't have before. This program is a collection of twenty-some individual "normal people" from the New York area who happened to turn their video cameras on and capture a unique perspective on the subject.

New Yorkers Aren't That Cold
It was cool to see the hard and cold New Yorkers actually help each other out in a time of need. It made realize that New York isn't as cold-hearted and mean as most of the world sees them.

Difference Between Fear And Terror
Some of the people in the documentary were describing terror and the difference between that and just plain fear. That was the first time I'd ever really thought about the difference between fear and terror.

Defining Terror
Fear: "an emotion experienced in anticipation of some specific pain or danger (usually accompanied by a desire to flee or fight)."
Terror: "an overwhelming feeling of fear and anxiety."

Feeling Grateful
I'm grateful I live in a small city in an obscure location of an obscure state.
