I went to the museum with a friend of mine. I was in my teens when it happened and I have a lot of memories of 9/11. So the museum didn't hit me. What REALLY hit me was my friend made a comment about how she was alive but hadn't really developed any memories yet so she didn't remember any of it. She was overwhelmed and all of a sudden I felt overwhelmed through her like I was back in 2001 again. I won't say the world changed: But I will say there was a very powerful ripple effect and its wave can still be felt today.

I remember when this museum opened and it felt weird since 9/11 still felt like a current event.
Twenty years later, I’m really glad they made a museum, even though I’ve never been and probably never will, having since I observed it live.
