Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: My husband and I were getting ready for work when the news flash came over TV. We went to CNN and watched in disbelief. We are both at retirement age and have lived through the years when our country was at war many times. Have had our fathers serving their country in the military during these wars. But this time it was happening right on our own soil. And one of our daughters lives very near Ground Zero and we were both concerned about her safety. We called and she told us she was OK, which made us feel better about her being so close. Both of us went to work and the whole day was a blur, Everyone was talking about what had happened and what was coming next. I am so proud to be an American and proud of the way we have handled ourselves throughout the last year. This has brought our country closer together and more aware that we are the most fortunate beings on earth.

I wrote this poem as a tribute to the internal struggles of those who lost loved ones on 9-11, both civilian and fire & rescue workers. It was written on the anniversary for our school's memorial - this Christmas I visited the exhibition in Washington D.C. and wanted to share my poem with others: "The Kiss They Left Behind" (c) 2002 by Lisa Dalrymple Few understand the pain of having only half your heart left. -Hollowed heart be filled with the joy of a young one's eyes. Demorilization becomes your demeanor, and confusion your familiarity. -Bewiledered mind be stilled by the comfort of another's understanding. You're left cold with no arms to warm you. -Broken body be healed by the warmth of the sun that keeps on rising and setting. You begin to wonder what there is to life now. -Spirit in despair be willed to teach your babies about their Daddy. And remember to tell them, when they're grown' that they're -the kiss they left behind.

Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: MY Sept. 11, 2001 I never would of thought a few short days after my birthday the world would be change forever. Well I woke up thinking that it would be another day at the Mahoing County Career and Tech Center in Canfield, Ohio. I thought that I would have some fun with friends and also go to my classes. Well this year I was lucky that I did not have a history class, but little did I know that I was going to be part of a chapter that will be written in a history book and remember forever. As I arrived at school I saw my friends and teachers and stuff not having the slightest clue what was going to happen in a few short hours. Thinking that it was any normal day I went along with my business. I walk to my first class, which was my lab and I got ready to go to work. As the three hours pass I work on my work, still clueless to what had happen around 9:00 am on that day. Soon enough it was brought to our attention that something bad was going on in New York City and at the Pentagon, but I did not think anything of it. Rumors went around the school that 2 planes crashed into the WTC buildings. Nothing seemed different as I walk through out the halls, but still clueless that as I stood there wondering if what they where saying was true, that the second plane has crashed in to the other tower and that the third plane crashed into the Pentagon. Well the day went on and rumors got stronger. As I sat in biology, one of my friends mom called and told him that he was allowed to leave that something bad happen in New York and to The Pentagon?then I knew that the rumors where true. We ran to the T.V. and turned it on to see a site that you would maybe see in a nightmare. The North and South building where smoking. Then we saw the Pentagon smoking as well. In the time of shock there where people mad, sad, and just plan out shocked. As we sat there we thought that it was over and that it can only get better but that is not what happen. Five minutes latter we just witness something that we thought would never happen. One of the WTC buildings falls from 110 stories in the air down to GROUND ZERO. After that everyone went home at 2:10 pm, we went home and turned on the T.V. and were wondering who would do a thing like that. But now on Sept. 11, 2002 we stand full guard ready for anything and everything. Even though the WTC buildings are not there and it dose not look right we will always remember that WE STAND UNITED!!!!!!

Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: I was busy cleaning my house, and while working in the laundry room, I kept hearing my phone ringing over and over. After a while, I was able to answer and it was my sister telling me the World Trade Center had been attacked. By then it was 10:30am and the television was broadcasting the planes going into the towers over and over. My mother and best friend were calling me as well, and we were all frantically changing channels on the T.V. to find out exactly what was going on. My first instinct was to go and pick up my then 7 year old daughter from school. I called and the secretary told me that the school was in a complete lockdown and there was a staff member standing guard at each door. They were cancelling outdoor recesses for the day, and the older classes were aware of what was going on, but the younger classes, including my daughters were only told that something had happened in another state and that they were all ok. I asked the secretary what the other parents were doing, and she said only a small percentage of parents were pulling thier children out of school and were coaxing the rest of us to allow our children to maintain the normalcy of being at school so as not to alarm them even more. As much as it broke my heart to leave her there, I did. I called my husband to make sure he was ok, as he works quite closely to a company that, in the event of an all out attack, would most likely be hit. He said they were all in the break room watching the television as well and unable to concentrate on working. After few hours, he, along with the majority of the nation, was sent home graciously by his boss to spend time with the family. As I watched the television all I kept on thinking was, my childrens world will never be the same again. I was maintaining a manner of calm for the sake of my 3 year old son who was home with me at the time, until I heard a report that there was a bomb found in the New York City High school near the World Trade Center, and that was the final straw. I broke down in a heap on the floor and sobbed. Being a mother, any time a child is threatend, no matter what age, is too much for me to handle. I was relieved to find out hours later that it was not true. I walked to school that afternoon, knowing by then, that most of the parents were now home from work and picking up thier own children instead of opting for the bus that day. As we walked home, I asked her if she knew what was going on and she said that a building had been bombed in another state and that a few people had been killed. I gently explained to her what I knew had happened at the time, and her biggest concern was if there were any children in the buildings visiting their parents at work that morning. My husband and I turned off the television at that point and just sat in silence for a long time. Later that evening, we sat and watched the President address the nation to tell us what to do for the next day. He asked us to go to work, and to school, and to not let the terrorists win by keeping us from living our lives. My daughter had hoped that school would be cancelled the next day, but she said that if the President said to go, then she was ok with that. Here it is one year later, and my daughter has that day burned into her memory. We were on our way to school during the national moment of silence. I explained to her that it was at that exact moment that the first Tower was hit and that is when it all started. She sat quietly on the way to school, and when the moment was over, told me she was still glad to be in America even if we were attacked. Her school had a red, white and blue day and it was inspiring to see the sea of colors and flags the children were wearing that morning. The children observed a moment of silence after saying thier Pledge of Allegience then went to work on being children, safe and sound once again.

Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: I was at work on that sunny morning in the JHS I worked in. I passed by the office and saw teachers frantically saying a plane hit the WTC. Others had just came in and witnessed it driving to work. My first reaction was to get in touch with all my friends who worked in the city. I ran outside and called my mom and instantly started crying and snuck my way home while frantically calling everyone. All answered except one, the one I was most worried about. We had known each other for years and recently began dating. We sat in my living room and watched it on tv with horror. In shock, I scurried my way back to work to find chaos. Teachers were crying, parents were frantically trying to take there kids home. I got myself together and did what I had to do. I held crying teacher's hands, kept the children and parents in order, called my friend still to no avail. I went into the teacher's lounge to find ashes settling on the lunch table. I looked out the window and saw that cars were all turning gray. I still couldn't register what was going on around me. I had a little radio which we set up in the lounge and listened to for new news. Finally, I came home and I recieved a call saying that my friend was in the building. Then reality hit. I would never hear from him again. I fell to the ground and cried until there were no tears left.

We heard from a co-worker's girlfriend about the first plane, and just did not believe it. We then watched in horror on our little black and white tv we have in the lab as the second plane hit. We then got the calls saying a plane was headed for Philly, and could we all please come home. By then we were so confused, but the hospital went into a code for an external disaster, and none of us were allowed to leave. The building we are in is 22 storied tall, so we had no idea if we were a target or not. I was just so worried for my family, my mother was in Chicago for a business meeting. I was very worried for my unborn child, worried I was never going get to meet her.

Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: September 11, 2001 started out as one of the most beautiful days, blue skies and perfect temperatures in the 70's. I was driving to work when the first plane hit, the radio announcer only said there was a fire in the WTC, but I tried to find another station to find out what was going on. At one point on my way to work I come to a top of a hill which overlooks the New York skyline and usually the first thing that I see is the World Trade Center. That morning when I got to the top of the hill, I looked in horror because both towers were on fire, black smoke pouring out of them, it was so clear that day that I could see black lines running down the sides of the towers. Noone still was sure what was going on, I listened to a radio station who was watching a videotape of the second plane hitting, and saying that this had to be an attack. I am finally at the library, I run in, frantic at this point because my son takes the PATH train directly under the towers at 8:45 am everyday! Everyone is confused, frightened, and not sure what is happening. I run to my office, dial my son's office, and get his voicemail. I leave a message, please call me, something horrible has happened, please call me! My husband is calling me, crying, frightened, not knowing what is going on, not knowing where our son may be. I have to start my new job as trainer that day, my very first class was scheduled, and people are walking into the training room asking what has happened. My husband calls me to tell me Jason has gotten through to him on his cell phone, he had missed the first plane, he was walking to his office. As he walks out on the street, the second plane hits, and he tells us he didn't see it, but he heard it and felt it hit the building. Thank god my son is alright, now he has to get out of the city, which he does by 6:00 pm by walking down the FDR highway and seeing the most bizarre and surreal sights in his 27 years on this earth. Meanwhile, I teach my class, come out to the reference desk to find out that one tower has collapsed, the Pentagon has been hit, and wonder if this is the end of the world. The library was open all day, we gave a lot of information out to many frightened patrons, but the entire day my heart was broken. I couldn't wait to get home, my husband and I cried, for the relief of knowing our son was alive and home, and also for the many people who died that day. My heart has a huge hole in it even now, and I can still see those towers on fire as if it were yesterday. I am very fortunate that I did not lose anyone I love, but my life has been changed forever.

Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: I was in my office and talking with my mother when she said my sister had called to say a plane had struck the WTC. We hung up and I tried to pull up various news web-sites to see what was going on. At the same time, my manager called to say she heard on the radio that the WTC was struck by a plane and that she was going to get a portable TV and be right in. We watched the re-run of the 2nd plane hitting the tower, then watched horrified as first one, then both towers fell. I was numb; having moved to St. Louis from New York when I was 12, I had always figured on going back to do the "touristy" things like visiting the WTC. Now that opportunity has been taken from me, and my daughter who turned 2 months old on that fateful day. I also remember calling my father to tell him what had happened; he said the towers had just been struck, but were still standing. I remember his total silence when I told him we had watched on the news both towers collapse. He quietly said he had to go. Being a first time mother, with my daughter turning 2 months old on September 11, 2001, I was resolved to make sure that I enjoy every day I have with her and the rest of my family. I also can't figure out how I'll explain all of this to her when she's old enough to understand. I saved newspaper clippings and the photo-magazines to document what happened. The real heroes in this world are those who selflessly put their lives on the line each and every day, from local to national, to keep each of us safe. And that there are people in this world who just can't understand the American idea of freedom.

Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: I had just started my day at the State University At Farmingdale, when I heard that a plane had struck the first tower. We had a TV for school purposes and I was able to retrieve a station that had news about the trade towers being hit. We had it on when the second tower was hit. We couldn't believe it, it seemed like we were watching a TV movie, especially when the first tower fell. I felt like my world was crashing down around me as the trade towers had always been a part of my life. I worked in lower Manhattan when I graduated High School, but they weren't there as yet. I visited the towers first in 1986 with my two children, and then again in 1993 with a friend. It seemed they were indistructable, as were we as Americans. I can't believe they fell, but as any thing including us, all must reach an end. Nothing is permanent, except death. All the faculty and students were devestated about these events and held each other closely, in our hearts, minds and bodies. That night when we were requested to light a candle and stand outside, I was with my daughter, son-in-law and grandchild and each of us cried tears of joy that the US was one. It was remarkable that all people, regardless of race, creed or religion became as one. It should be that way always, throughout the world and terrorism would play no part in anyone's life. I pray to God that all this will end, and my grandchildren will live in peace. But what is live, but evil spelled backwards, so does that mean we will have to have live in an evil place the rest of our lives! I hope and pray that will not happen. Thank you for hearing my request, and my story about 9/11/01. Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Yes I don't feel safe living in the United States so close to the airforce base anything could happen and I feel closer to my family and it made me realize terrorists who could hurt us come to the United States.

Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: I t was a beautiful September morning. My co-worker Arthur had decided to go to his desk and show me the latest pictures of his son instead of heading downstairs to have a smoke. Just as he got to his desk, I felt a rumbling under my feet. At first, I thought it was an earthquake,then as I was sitting in my desk, the whole floor shifted to the left for what seemed an eternity,then it shifted back into position. I looked across at my co-worker Jackie and we were both perplexed and did not know what had just happened.I then stood up and took a look, Mike our manager was streaking down towards the exit doors screaming, everyone out of the building. I screamed the same thing as loud as I could. I then went to the exit door and when I opened it, the ceiling was coming down along with black soot and smoke. I then waited by the door as my co-workers were heading down the staircase, looking them in the eye and telling them not to panic or hurry and waited until the floor was empty. I then began my descent down the stairs. Everyone was calm, noone really knew what had happened. I made my way to the 27th floor when one of my co-workers was standing there and asked me if I could help him get a man in a wheelchair down the stairs(That man was Ed Bugeya). I said no problem, standing there was myself, Felix, Fred, Ed & Abe. I knew we would be there awhile , so I pulled out my cellphone and called my wife to find out what had happened. it was know about 9am. At first she could not find it on the TV but about 5 minutes later she called and told me that a plane had hit the WTC. A plane? I said it out loud, everyone in the staircase thought that it might be a small engined plane. my wife told me to get out of the building, but I told her that I was helping to get a man in a wheelchair out of the building and I would be getting out soon. The only problem is when we asked Ed to let us help him, he kept saying that bldg. security had told him to stay and they would come and get him. So, we waitied. At this point Fred had gone down to alert security. my wife was now calling me every 2 miunutes pleading with me to get out of the building, while trying not to panic me. A fireman passed us in the hallway, I will never forget him. He was a big Irish guy, heavyset,with full gear exhausted from his climb, terror in his eyes,determined to get to his assigned floor. I begged him to be careful and said a prayer that he would be safe. I started to panic, people were opening the doors to the staircase,each time this happened, more smoke billowed in, filling my lungs and making me dizzy. I asked Abe again to let us try and carry him down the stairs,but he wouldnt. His wheelchair had special features which supplied him oxygen, if we took him out of the wheelchair he would suffocate. That is when I said"Ed,if you are not going to let me help you, I have to leave". He said thanks and good luck. Felix and Ed were now with him and I started my descent down the staircase. I must have said the "our father" about 1000 times on my way down. I got to the 5th floor and a stream of water was going down the stairs, as I got to the third floor it was more like a waterfall. I catrefully made my way out down the stairs when I finally made it to the exit. there was a guard standing there telling me to put my head down and run as fast as I can to the breezeway leading to the world financial Center.As I was running there was debris falling all around me. I met up with a friend of mine and we walked out by the Hudson River together. As we got outside I called my wife Dorothy to tell her I had made it out, that is when she told me it was a terrorist attack. There were thousands of people standing around, I finally turned around and looked up to see what was going on. There was fire coming out of the top of the tower, a haze was all around it and it looked horrible. at this point I said to my buddy jeff, lets get the hell out of here(in my heart I felt there was another plan coming to wipe us out). As we were walking away we were discussing how long it would take to repair the damage,we figured a couple of months at best. We started our trek uptown, we then hooked up with my buddy Tony and made our way uptown. When we reached 14th street, we heard a horrible crashing sound, we turned around and we then saw the building we had loved so much come crashing down. At that point I said that we are now "at war". We made our way to Madison squatre Garden where we went into a sports bar and for the first time on a TV screen I saw what had happened. That is when it all hit me. I called my wife and started to cry, telling her my story and asking why this had happened, realizing that I was a target. My brother Dom called me and told me to go to 57th st and meet him at my sister Debbies office. That is when I found out her nephew Joe worked for Cantor Fitzgerald and was on the 104th floor. I knew he didn't make it, but did not tell her that, she went walking downtown scanning the hospitals, trying to find him. My nephew Neil found me and drove me home to my family. There are details I have left out but I can tell you that I am still in therapy and I cannot watch movies with bombs or killing. I have flown on an airplane, but I prefer driving. God Bless America and the souls of the people who died and those who sacrifiecd theirs trying to save others. Ed and Abe died along with the men trying to help him out of the building. But my buddy Felix survived. Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Tell us your story: Before I tell my story, I would like to take the opportunity to say to all the people who lost a love one on that tragic day my sincerest sympathy goes out to you all. On that day I was walking to my job. I just came out of the #6 train and was thinking I wish my job was a bit closer so i would have to walk so much. I walked into the building and I remember thinking what a beautiful day it is. As I proceeded to go into the office my co-workers said to me a plane just flew into the World Trade Center #1. I told them and I quote " you guys have lost your minds". One of my co-workers said to me listen to the radio. I proceeded to sit down at my desk and tried to absorb everything i was hearing. I couldn't believe it, I said to myself they did again. I was in complete shock because I was there in 1993 when the bomb went off. My husband was there when the bomb went off. I just crying and when I heard that the buildings were coming down I couldn't believe what i was hearing, I just wanted to go home and crawl into a blanket and cry my eyes out Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: There I stood, transfixed with what was being shown to me on the television screen, my mind not comprehending what I saw. Joining me in the room were my fellow high school classmates who were obviously sharing my same emotions on that September morning. The only thing that separated me from most of the rest is that I didn't cry. In fact, I haven't cried over the year since the tragedy occurred. This disturbs me because I feel as though it is my duty to my country to show extreme emotion with something this horrific. But I suppose I have dealt with it in my own way. I have been sad, confused, and absolutely livid. And though I may not have cried, I certainly have felt the impact of it all and am greatly disturbed. It is hard for me to imagine what the people are feeling and going through that are so closely connected with the September 11th attacks because I cannot relate. I was fortunate enough to not lose a loved one, but I pray for those who did. Hopefully they will manage to get on with their lives, which were so abruptly thrown into chaos in a matter of minutes. And may we all move on, never forgetting the impact this day has on every American or how it has changed the face of our beloved country. Our homeland. The land of freedom and happiness. But I doubt that any of us ever will. May all Americans also learn to rise up and overcome the enemy. We have to let it be known that they may bring harm to us, but this does not mean we will lay down and die.

Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: Like every other morning, on my way to work I was listening to the "Bob and Sheri" show on my car radio. They were into their chat room portion of the show where people call in and discuss all different kinds of topics. Not suprisingly, I don't remember the topic on September 11th 2001. What I do remember is Bob cutting into someone's phone call to let the listeners know that he'd just received word that an airplane had just crashed into one of the WTC towers. I remember thinking, "oh my god, that's horrible" and looking at my clock and trying to figure out what the time change, if any, would apply to New York and wondering if people had started to show up for work there. Bob told us that he'd give us more information as he got it and I continued on to work. When I got to work, I immediately turned on the radio to see if anymore information had been attained, what I heard then sent such a bolt of fear through me that I had to sit down and take some deep breaths. Another plane had crashed into the OTHER WTC tower. I immediately knew America was under attack. Something no person of my generation had ever experienced (I'm 32). We weren't alive during Pearl Harbor and the closest we'd ever come to real time war was watching CNN or of course movies. The one thought I kept having was "This is America, they can't do that to us". Not because I think America is above being a victim but because it was such a foreign concept that someone had attacked us here, on our own soil. America. How was it possible? Things like this just do not happen in America. I was wrong and like the rest of the country, I had a wake up call. One of our most basic and taken for granted feelings was obliterated. WE NO LONGER FELT SAFE. Here in America, fear was now a national feeling. We now had something in common with those countries we see on the news all the time. Those news stories we watched with detachment. Bombings, war, terrorist attacks, fear. Those stories we now understand much more deeply. Americans now have an empathy with other innocent victims who through no fault of their own, look over their shoulders much more often. America as a country and as individuals had been changed forever. Today, the one year anniversary of America's loss of so many innocent people, marks each and every one of us with the residue of terror, yet it also marks us with the knowledge that this nation is what it proclaims to be. Home of the FREE and the Brave, the greatest nation on earth. The nation that took such a horrible, unexpected hit yet pulled together so tightly that the normal reasons for division were forgotten - race, sex, economic background, religion. On this day, once again we are all just Americans. The most blessed nation on the planet. My hope is that this closeness and tolerance will continue to stay strong in our country. That individually we can look at our blessings and do everything in our power to give to and help others not so fortunate. That we can realise that our diversity is what makes us such a great nation and that those ever present "self evident" truths are just as true today as when they were written. All men are created equal. Let's start living our lives believing it.
