Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: I witnessed history on September 11. My teacher told me that a hijacked plane hit the World Trade Center. My teacher turrned on the TV in her classroom and we saw what was happening. We saw te video of the Trade Center Towers and the plane crashing into them. It was unbeleiveable. I didn't see why they couldn't have told us sooner because we found out anyway. We found out when we got home from school. I guess they didn't want us to get worried because some students had parents or relatives in the World Trade Center. I was very surprised then. When I got home, I turned on the TV right away. I was shocked. My life hasn't changed much since September 11. The atmostphere in schools and around the United States has changed a great deal. Around the United States, people are now more patriotic then ever before and the security of airports and stores have increased rapidly since September 11. In school now we have lockdown and we have student IDs. the purpose for lockdown is in case there is an intruder in the building, we can all hide and be safe. the purpose for the student IDs are so we can identify if there is an intruder. No relatives, aunts, or uncles of mine were killed on September 11 so I have nothing to worry about. My life today was the same as before September 11.

Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: I WOKE UP TO THE PHONE RINGING. MY SISTER SAYS A PLANE CRASHED INTO THE TWIN TOWERS. AT THE TIME I HAD A BEAUTIFUL VIEW OF THE TOWERS. ALL I COULD SEE WAS SMOKE. I REMEMBER THINKING,'HOW COULD A PILOT GET SO FAR OFF COURSE? YOU CAN SEE THOSE TOWERS AT MIDNITE, AND THE SKY IS PERFECTLY CLEAR TODAY.' THEN I LOOK UP AND SEE ANOTHER PLANE FLYING OVER HEAD AND I THOUGHT IT WAS JUST ANOTHER PLANE GOING TO CHECK IT OUT. THE SECOND PLANE MAKES A WEIRD, WIDE TURN AND SLAMS INTO THE OTHER TOWER. I HAD NEVER FELT SO SICK AND TERRIFIED IN MY ENTIRE LIFE. I RAN THROUGH THE HOUSE SCREAMING 'IT'S TERRORISTS!!' I WAS SO SHAKEN UP AND ON EDGE THAT MY MOTHER HAD TO LITERALLY SIT ME DOWN. I COULDN'T HELP BUT TO THINK THAT I PICKED THE WRONG TIME TO BRING A CHILD INTO SUCH AN EVIL WORLD. I EVEN CONTEMPLATED ABORTION. IN THE FOLLOWING DAYS(AND WEEKS AND MONTHS), JUST TO SEE AND HEAR ABOUT ALL THE HELP AND VOLUNTEERS AND SURVIVORS AND ALL THE GOOD NEWS THAT CAME FROM THAT TRAGIC EVENT, I REALIZED WHAT A GREAT COUNTRY I'M A PART OF AND WHY OUR NATION'S CREED IS "IN GOD WE TRUST". MY SON IS 4 MONTHS OLD NOW. WHEN I TELL HIM ABOUT THIS DAY, I WILL TELL HIM ABOUT ALL THE WONDERFUL PEOPLE WHO KEPT OUR STATE AND COUNTRY UNIFIED, STANDING TALL AND PROUD. GOD BLESS AMERICA.

Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: September 11, 2001, was my second day of student teaching at Pulaski Middle School in New Britain, CT. At around 8:40 A.M., my cooperating teacher and I had sent the kids off to gym class. Shortly after, I logged onto the classroom computer to check my e-mail and the news. When I looked at Cnn.com, the graphic of the plane hitting the first tower struck me-I first thought that this was a movie that was being filmed. Shortly thereafter, one of the school volunteers came into the classroom to tell me that one of the World Trade Center towers had been hit by an airplane, and it was at that moment that I discovered that this tragedy was all too true. As I had to teach until noon, I did not hear about the other three planes until that hour. The children were scheduled to have a class called Character Education (to be given by the PE teacher) at 2:00 P.M. that afternoon, but instead, she spoke very eloquently about the tragic events that had occurred. Driving home that day, I wanted to get home as fast as possible, as I was not sure if other attacks would occur. Listening to the radio and hearing nothing but news was shocking and surreal to me-I couldn't believe what was happening. On arriving home, I turned on the TV and watched news coverage of the attacks as I tried to grasp the dimensions of what had occurred. Later that evening, while still watching media coverage, tears began to well up in my eyes-even though I had not lost anyone at any of the disaster sites. It is my sincere hope that America NEVER forgets the events of this day-it is our responsibility to teach our children and grandchildren about this horrible day in US history and instill in them a responsibility for them to tell future generations so that this NEVER HAPPENS again.

Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: I was on my normal routine of dropping my Son at school & driving to work. I had the radio on & heard that a plane had hit one of the twin towers. I immediately called my Mom to turn on the TV, because it just didn't sound right. Once I arrived at work, the entire building was crowded around the TV in the lunchroom. That's when I realized, this was no accident. The second tower had just been struck. We didn't get much work done that day as we all sat & cried. From a $10 donation I purchased a tee shirt with an eagle, the date & the words you will not be forgotten on it. I wore it today, on the one year anniversary, attended a mass for peace & went to the cemetery to visit the graves of my parents. My Mom died this past March, ten years after my Dad. I placed red & white flowers & asked them to watch over us. I will remember that day forever & hate the fact that my teenager was in fear today that something was going to happen again because of that awful event. I assured him all would be fine, but he could tell I wasn't very positive myself. To all that lost loved ones & to those left that live in fear, my prayers are with you.

Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: September 11. 2001, was my first day on the job at West Virginia University Hospital Ruby Mememorial. I was so excited and nervous that day wondering if I would be able to remember all the different phone numbers for the different departments and whether or not I would be able to ever understand the call schedule for the residents and attending doctors.Some of the nurses were sitting in the break room and turned on the TV (which we aren't supposed have on) to see what the weather was going to be and see what was going on. I was on the phone paging a doctor when I heard from the break room, "Oh My God a plane has hit the World Trade Center. I remember thinking what in the world, did the engines fail? How could this have happened? The nurses and I stood glued to the TV wondering what was going on, what happened, and looked on in shock then here comes the second plane. That was the moment I realized that we were under attack and I said this is not the end they are going to be going Washington DC next. I remember at that moment calling my best Friend Tammy Dalton telling her to turn on her TV that we are under attack. I was scared at that moment for my children, my family, and my friends. I turned to look back in the break room and my heart broke cause while I was worried about my family I couldn't imagine the pain that the families of the victims in the planes, in the World Trade Center were going through at that moment. I couldn't concentrate on my job I wanted to stayed glued to the TV, praying that the people inside would get out safe and still wondering who, what, and why did this happen? Then the third plane hit the Pentagon and I am saying to myself " My God get the planes out of the air" and knowing that no one can know what I am saying to myself and I want to leave and go home and get my kids to feel safe at my house, but I know that I can't leave this is my first day on my new job. Then you could hear every TV in the SICU unit on. Though we were in shock and we were worried about what was going to happen next, we had patients and work to do. With working on the Surgical and Medical Intensive CAre Units, most of our patients are intubated and sedated, so they were not able to know what was happening in our world that day, some of them never lived long enough to know what happened on that horrific day that made history forever. And I wonder if that was a blessing for them or they will never know that what our country has stood for was now being under attack by someone that had a cause that none of us knew what it was. Throughtout the morning we are trying to do our jobs and watch what is going on in our country. Then it came that another plane has gone down in Pennslyvania, about 70 miles from Morgantown, so close to home and I am mortified that there are planes still in the air knowing what is going on and that we are going to be hit next. We have the TV on and turn on the radio at the desk, it's like we can't tear ourselves away from the news no matter how it was coming across to us. On the radio it is annouced that there is a bomb threat at the Wharf District, a new building that just opened up on the riverfront. I call my mother and tell her to please go get my children from school, I tell her that I love her and for her to tell my kids I love them because knot knowing what is going to happen next I want them to know how much I love them and that they are my life. I am wanting to go home, only a few more hours and I can. I continue with the rest of the day, knowing that I didn't retain very much of what my new duties were going to be. My mom called me back at work and said that the boys would be fine at school since it was safe there. When is this day going to be over kept going through my head, it's a bad dream and I will wake up and everything will be different. "How could this happen in our country? We are the symbol of freedom and hope and refuge. Why are we being attacked? This happens in other countries, it's an everyday way of life for them not here not in our country." These thoughts just kept going over and over in my mind. Finally it was time to go home, I needed to be at home and see my kids to hug them and tell them that I loved them and tell them that our freedom was being attacked, something that they wouldn't understand at the time since they have never had a reason too. I get home and they aren't here which is usually normal for them since they like to talk to their friends before coming to the house. It was now 4 pm and they weren't home yet. I am wondering where in the heck are they? I go outside and look down the road to see if I see them walking up the road, they are no where in site. I go and call a friend of thier's named Ben and ask him if he seen the boys, he tells me that they were not on the bus. So am I thinking that they are at the school and didn't get on the bus in time. I call the school and they tell me that they are not there, my heart drops, where are my boys? I call Ben again to confirm that they were not on the bus he tells me that he didn't see them. At this point I am frantic, I call the school back and ask them where are my children, that they didn't come home and they weren't on the bus. They don't know, they are going to contact the bus driver. I call the police and tell them that my children are missing, that they haven't come home from school. Ben's dad beeps in on my call waiting and ask me if I found the boys, I tell him no and that I have the police on the other line. I tell the police what they are wearing and what they look like, they tell me they are coming over. I then call my mom and ask her if she picked the boys up and she says no. I tell her they are missing and I don't know where they are at. AT this point I am hysterical and for a moment I know how the families of the WTC, the pentagon, and Flight 93 are feeling. The police offiecer shows up at the house to get a picture of the boys and ask me if I had any idea where they would be. AT that moment the phone rings and it is Stephanie with Kelidoscope asking me if I was going to pick up the boys are were they going to ride the bus home? I remember screaming in the phone " Where are my boys?" and she tells me that they are at Riverside Kelidoscope after school program. I had signed them up for it but didn't know that they were accepted into the program. I go outside and tell the officer where they are and she tells me " Go and get your boys and hug them". I sat down and cried, I cried for the the my children and I cried for what was going on in our great country and I cried for the families and how they must be feeling at this moment. The rest of the evening was me and the kids glued in front of the TV watching and hoping and praying that there are survivors of this horrific acts on our country. They say that crying is good for the soul, well I am not sure if that is true or not but I know that if it is then our country's soul wept and still weeps. One year later and my heart still weeps for the victims or rather for the heros that gave their life for the freedom that this country has stood on for all the years that I have been here. We will never forget September 11, 2001, the day that our world stood still. 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: I called my neighbor, to tell him I had gotten his daughter on the bus. He said we were being bombed, are you watching t.v.? I thought he was joking, and I hung up the phone. When I turned the t.v. on a few minutes later, I saw pictures of the plane entering the tower, and them falling down. I started to shake, and called my husband at work. I cried all day, while watching the coverage. Around one p.m. I went up to Oakville Elementary, and asked if I could look in the classroom ( my son was in first grade). I saw him , and I left, carrying my 4 1/2 year old. She kept asking me what was wrong, and I could not answer. Today I pay tribute to the people who helped, and mourned for the ones who did not survive. When Haley came home from 1/2 day kindergarten, she asked, once again, what was wrong, and I still had no answer. How do you tell a child the world we live in can change in a heart-beat, and to cherish what you have now. There are sick animals out there, lying in wait, ready to pounce on us, because we are proud to be "One Nation, Under God".

Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: A friend and I were traveling to Belgium to visit her daughter, who is married to an Army officer. We had been commenting on the number of Arabs in the airports and how rude they were on our first flight out of Charlotte, NC. We had never seen so many Arabs gathered at airports like this before. Not til we arrived at NATO headquarters did we receive the news from a small transistor radio on her daughter's desk. People were running in the halls and at first were told we may not be able to leave the NATO headquarters. We were devastated and frightened...wondering if we would be able to get back home to North Carolina. It was later in the day before we saw the news on CNN at her daughter's home. It was shocking to watch the twin towers fall and we were overwhelmed with disbelief. How could this happen to America? Our hearts were grief-strickened for the families and friends of those lost. We were allowed to travel later to Rome, Italy and were greeted warmly by the people once they could hear we were Americans. In all the churches and cathedrals we visited, prayer books were full for America and the tragedy. We were touched by their compassion. It was a week later that I was scheduled to come home...which happened to be the day flights were allowed back to America. Needless to say, because of security, I missed my flight out of Gatwick Airport in England. A lot of Americans were stranded there, and I could not find a hotel to stay the night. So I ended up spending 24hrs in the airport, sleeping in a chair, clutching my suitcases with numerous other passengers. I met a young girl from Bulgaria, whom I believe God sent to be my guardian angel that night. She definitely was a blessing! When I got on the flight the next day(one seat was left), I ended up sitting beside a man who was from Sawmills, NC....a town next to my community! And when that plane landed in Charlotte, there was shouting and clapping throughout the plane. I kissed the ground when I got off the plane, which a lot of others did also. One woman passed out when she met her husband. I had never been so thankful in my life and will never forget the experience.

Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: I did not believe my husband the morning I was in the kitchen on September 11th, that NY was being attacked. He pulled me into the living room and put me in front of the TV. Not 1 minute after that, the second tower got hit. We sat there in silence, we were shocked, and then the fright set in. How many people are still in the tower, where will then strike next. After that we started getting the story that planes had crashed into the towers, the Pentagon, and in to a filed in PA. I for the first time felt unsafe in the US. Our strong nation is being attacked. This strong nation that is the home of the free and brave. I went to work and it will be a sight I will never forget. In rush hour traffic on the highway, I looked behind me to see every single car had their headlights on for miles at 8:30 in morning. It made my heart skip a beat and realize, these terrorist's just managed to make a nation stronger than it was before. I drove to work worried, and proud at the same time of the nation I live in. As I sat down at my desk at work, I found there were many people who where afraid to be in a building that day. My boss had asked me if I would feel better being at home. I stayed. As I walked around that day, there were T.V.'s on people on the phone trying to get a hold of loved ones to see if they were okay. Working for a large Life Insurance and Investment Company, I started to realize how this would effect us. Many of the agents had lost life long clients that they had built a trusting relationship with them and their families, many of our agents were based out of NY and waiting to see if they would hear from their loved ones. I then realized how important Life Insurance had become. I was in an industry that had been able to touch some families lifes in a way of securing what they have and protecting them. I came to find out that within 2 weeks our agents worked to meet with each family that had lost a loved one. There were fathers, sons, wives, husbands, daughters, mothers.... Our company paid out 90 million dollars in benefits within that time and still kept going. While other companies argued that it was an act of war, when it was not. It made me feel that I helped to give something to familes that would make them worry about one less stress. They now had to deal with their loss and how to get on with their lives and cope. We at least took the stress of money out of their life so they may grieve and start their healing process. I went home each night and turned on the radio and listened as they found remains one by one and how many people still had hope their loved ones would be found. I continued to grow more angry with these Terrorist's, and how they hurt such innocent people and the pain and fright they went through as the buildings crumbled beneath them. My heart went out to each of them in their last moments. The firefighters that will never again be the same, and their nightmares, from what they had to pursue. A city that is such a part of American history that had some important part taken away. Today a year later, I cried all the way to work, because behind me in rush hour, every car behind me had their lights on. This nation will be stronger, but we will never forget, and will always be aware that our freedom in priceless and we fight for it. To all the men and woman that fight everyday in our military and on our streets, thank you, we all stand behind you and will always appreciate the sacrifices that you have promised to make to keep our nation safe.

Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: I had just dropped my daughter off at school and was heading to work. Then all of the sudden I heard that a plane had flew into the World Trade Center. At this time I did not think to much of it, but by the time I got to work another plane had hit the other tower. Then the whole office watched on TV the events that unfolded that day. Even though I am very far from New York, I felt like I was in the middle of everything with them. All I wanted to do was get my 2 children and husband and go home and spend all night holding on to them. As a result of September 11, I no longer take anything for granted and I make sure I tell my family everday how much I love them. I hope that nothing else happens but if it does I know that I am stronger and can handle it now.

Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: I am a currier for Federal Express. Each morning I get into my big white truck and drive around the same area delivering packages. On Sept. 11, 2001 I was driving into an undustral park. It was just like any other day. Since I pretty much go to the same places every day and I have become friends with the people that work at these places. I don't remember what the exact time was when I got to the second stop but it must have been close to 9:15. The man there looked stressed and not himself. He told me that two trains had collided with each other under the world trade building and it was going to fall over. Being a currier means that I have a time scheadual that I need to stay on so I didn't think too much about it. I thought it was some communter type accident. The next stop I went to the people were not out front and I had to call out for them. After a few minutes this women came out, signed the clip board and ran back down the hallway. Most people say hello and goodbye but she said nothing. I went to my next stop and the man there said that it wasn't trains that hit the tower but a plane. I asked him if he knew anything else and he said it was on fire, but under control. I should explain that this kind of thing happens all the time where people will tell me the news that happen. I hear about earth quakes, traffic accidents, snow storms, shootings, and things that are the top stories in the news. So I still didn't have a since of urgency. Everything was still as normal as it is everyday but people seem to be missing. I got to the last stop in this area and there was no one there. I waited for about five minutes and left. Now things got strange. I see the same traffic every day. From where I was at that time I needed to drive about five miles to a big office building. There seemed to be no traffic at all. It was like a holiday. I just thought it was luck to be able to get where I was going without all th traffic in the way. At this building I had about five stops. The first stop at his building I went to a office on the second floor. The lady opened the door and five people were standin in front of a TV. I couldn't see what they were watching but they all looked worried. No one spoke. The lady signed the clip board and I left. On the third floor the first office I went to had the doors open and about thirty people were standing there looking at a TV. I had to get past them to deliver a letter and when I got past them I saw, for the first time, the TV screen and the smoking building. I don't ever get a chance to just stand and talk. On this day I didn't move for about five minutes. Thirty people and me, standing there looking at he screen not saying a word. I think both planes had hit both towers. I don't believe anyone could understand what was going on. I did have to leave. I had to have all the packages delivered by 10:30 am. I had to get to another office building and finish. I have a computer, communication system in my truck so I sent a message to the dispatcher and asked for any details. It was a five minute trip to the next building so there was time for him to respond. His message was, "There are things happening and detail will follow." This message was not sent to me but to all the 86 curriers from the station I work at. When I got to the first stop at this office building The lady told me that a plane had crashed into Pentagon Mall. Many people were killed and the fire was out of control. I started to move faster so I could finish. When I got to the next office, which was a big company, things got really strange. As soon as I walked in there was an announcement that the office building was closing. Never heard that happening before. Everyone was leaving. This was an government office that dealt with contracts. I had four more stops. When I went out to the truck there was a message that I thought I would never see. I have worked in snow storms, ice storms, really scary thunderstorms with lighting all around me, but never did anyone at Fed Ex seem to think there was any danger. The message said, "From Memphis, All Curriers in Washington D.C. area are to stop what they are doing and return to the station. You are not to deliver any more packages, but return now." We don't get messages from Memphis, where the National headquarters are. I did deliver the last of my packages which took only a few minutes and started back to the station which was about ten minutes away. Traffic had changed. The streets were filling up and people were driving fast. If you drive everyday like I do then you can notice things like this. I got decided it would be a good idea to get back fast. When I got to the station, which is a big open warehouse you have to drive in, only one door was open. My manager was there but also many strange people I have never seen before. I never asked who they were but later found out they were Fed Ex security to examine all the packages that the curriers brought back. I had none so I got in and got out. I drove home towards Washington so I was drivin against the traffic. By now it was almost bumper to bumper going the other way. That was my day. One side not to all this. As a History major I had a desire to somehow be linked to the events that happen that day. The way I am linked is in a sad way. Everyday I drive to a biotech company. It is a large place that has extra security now. But since the events of September 11, I deliver human tissue and body parts to them that are from the towers for DNA testing. Everyone in the station knows when I do this cause the boxes are white with yellow tape that says evidence on and are marked, "Medical exmainers office, NY. NY. Its not much but it makes me feel that I am doing something to help. Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

We released the employees to go home but no one left. As many as were lost I am still suprised there weren't more, considering the number of people that worked in and around those two buildings. Today (9/11/2002) we organized a remember our heros day and had a nice crowd, raising over $1,000.00 for the Fort Scott rural fire district.

Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: On the morning of 09/11/01 at about 6:30 A.M., my husband came into our room and turned the television on, yelling at me to wake up and see what was happening in New York. The sound of his voice horrifed me but could never have prepared me for the horror I felt as I watched the second plane fly into that tower! I was utterly silent as I sat up in bed, aghast at what I saw and hoping it was some kind of trick photography being played. I moved through my day in a mechanical way, unable to really concentrate on my job. My co-workers had brought in small televisions and for the better part of the day we hung together in small groups around cubicles, watching in disbelief at the destruction, terror and carnage that has forever changed our world, destroyed our innocense and left us with a feeling of vulenerability that the United States has not afforded me in my 47 years. Our Manager offered to let anyone go home that wanted to without question or problems but all of us stayed, grateful for a way to try to feel normal in such a frenzied, confusing day. Throughout the day, when I went outside, strangers would stop and talk to me, asking if I knew what happened and as I shook my head in an affirmative but mechanical manner, our eyes would meet and we would tell each other how very afraid we were, sometimes even hugging one another as if to somehow reassure ourselves that our world would be ok once again. I can not know the horror that New York lived but my heart goes out to all that lost loved ones. We will survive this, we are Americans...the Greatest Nation on Earth! We have seen trying times before and have risen above them and together in a united stand against evil, our Country and our spirits will triumph, in honor of those souls lost! .

Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: I had taken my mother to the doctor's office for surgery to remove a cancerous growth. We were there for quite a while. The doctor's office had piped in music so we were oblivious to what was going on. Around 10 AM the doctor came out to the waiting room and announced that a plane had hit the WTC building. I thought that it was only a small commuter plane and that this was nothing more than an unfortunate accident. A few minutes later he came back to say that there were two large planes that hit both WTC buildings and that one had collapsed. By now other patients were arriving and stating that another plane was unaccounted for and that the Pentagon had been struck as well. I went out to listen to the radio for updates. I had difficulty reaching my husband on the cell phone - he was working in Philadelphia. He was to have been doing field work at the Verizon building across the street from WTC that day - by luck, that visit was resche- duled and he was not there. It was a very eerie time - to know that such tragedy was occuring only 75 miles from us (to the North and South). Later that day I remember the strange silence in the skies as we are in the landing pattern for Phila International Airport - no commercial planes were flying. We are also close to McGuire AFB. We had many fighters and large military aircraft flying over our house. I also found out that our neignbor had been attending a seminar in NYC and had been staying at the WTC Marriott - she survived. I will remember the many tears I shed that day and how I wanted to be there to help. Even now, the tears flow quite freely. We lost many local folks that day. Our region was very devastated. God bless America! We will endure as a nation! 9/11 - We will remember! 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: September 11th was a day of change for me. I was stationed in Camp Stanley, Korea at the time and it was 3:00 a.m. in Korea when I first heard about it. My husband, then my boyfriend came rushing in and woke me up. "Wendy, Wendy, wake up! We're under attack! They've just bombed the Pentagon!!" I sat up with a start. "What???!!!" He proceeded to tell me about it, and then turned on the TV. My first look showed me the twin towers smoking. I was in shock. After that, I was scared to death. I was scared that we were going to war and it would be another World War. I thought "Whoa" I did'nt join the army to fight, just to try it out. I was scared. That was how my September 11th, 2001 went. God Bless America. Have strength, we will make it through.

Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: I am a night worker and I remember the time would have been around 2pm UK time. I had worked the previous night and so I was asleep. My Husband came and woke me and said that I must come and look at the TV because two planes had hit the world trade centre. I spent the next 5 hours glued to the screen as the story unfolded before me. I went to work that night in a sombre mood. The following day I bought every UK newspaper, read them from cover to cover and then placed them all in plastic bags and put them away.If I ever have children of my own I will take them out one day and let them see the full horror of what happened that day. From across the Atlantic we here in England can never understand the full horror of what New York and America went through that day but the imagination is bad enough.Tomorrow is the year Anniversary of the tragedy and my friend and I will travel into London to the US embassy in Grosvenor Square for a memorial service. Rest assured that as far afield as the UK tomorrow at 1:46 UK time the country will take part in a minutes silence and we will all be thinking of you and your loss. To all those who lost loved ones, the UK grieves with you. May they never, ever be forgotten. God Bless you all.

Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: Like millions of other people I was watching the Today show when they cut away to the shot of the first plane hitting the tower. Perhaps like some others, my first reaction was that it must be an accident; the plane looked small in the TV shot and so I assumed it must be a commuter plane. But when the second plane hit, that optimistic assumption about an accident was shattered. As I headed out to work, I thought that it would be interesting to collect online reactions to the unfolding events and "flashbulb memories." But I worried that such an effort might be seen as exploitative of the tragedy. My tendency to minimize or underestimate the scope or the events continued. When we heard on the car radio, a report of fire at the Pentagon, I suggested that it must by hysteria--how could something simultaneously be happening in Northern Virginia. Later, when I heard speculation that the WTC might collapse, I dismissed that as well. It was all much worse than I or anyone could have assumed.

Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: When this tragic stream of events took place, I was at school. Televisions were on everywhere and all eyes were glued to the set. I did not know what was going on. I asked one girl and she told me, but I still, at that moment, did not realize the depth of it all. Classes cancelled and when I got home I turned on the TV to see exactly what all the madness was about. I could not believe such a thing could happen. I would have never thought in my life time I would see something like this right here in our country, America the beautiful. When the said that the body count was over 3000, I was just in shock. What if it would have been here? What if it were my friends and family who got killed in such a way? I was nervous for a while after that. I did not want to go to any big events or concerts in fear that the terrorist would try and strike again and maybe this time it would be here. It really was an eye opener for us all. I just thank God for my life anf my family and friends. My heart goes out to any and everyone who lost a loved one on 9/11. Some of the stories that I have heard over the radio were too much to handle. This really affected us all in one way or another. I hope that nothings like this ever happens again. The worst part for me was when my father told me that he was getting shipped off. He is in the Army reserves and has been for years. He said that his unit was on standby and I just lost it. I could not stop crying. I also have three cousins in the service. One of them was shipped to San Antonio to wait for further orders. It was and still is a very trying time for was all. Gos Bless Each and Everyone of You and Your Friends and Families. United We Can Stand.

I sat in disbelief listening to live accounts of buildings falling and confusion. I was stunned. Upon reaching Little Rock, my intent was to drive directly to the Arkansas Baptist Convention building on West Capitol Street. Driving through the downtown traffic and still listening to the news accounts, I became disoriented and could not find my way. While driving down streets I did not recognize, I prayed, "Dear Lord please show me where the Baptist Building is. And dear Lord have mercy on this nation." I turned another corner and there I was..two doors down from the Baptist Building."
