Oh how I remember that day…..I had just switched jobs to a new place that week in Midtown…I remember first plane struck sounded like a small plane accident and then the 2nd and you knew we were under attack…..I recall looking out of an office that had a view of the world trade center-I remember seeing the smoke-I went back to my desk for 10 minutes and went back to the office and the building had come down already….I recall going to the lobby in my building and buying bottles of water didnt know what/how to prepare…trains were shut and it was mass confusion
at about 3PM the trains opened and I took a train and people were kind of subdued……I was the only one on the train with a yarmulka….and then it started….I said to myself I guess this is what germany was like in the 30’s……some guy starts talking out loud about the jews and the money and power…..
I am going to do some introspection on this Sunday and would like to hear others……some thoughts do you greet your wife and kids with a smile……how is your learning…..is it really necessary to make that fancy out of budget chasuna…..help someone out of a job financially or encourage them…….every minute is precious
