911DA Story: Story

As I was getting ready to start my day, our warehouse manager came into my work area and said a plane had just crashed into the World Trade Center tower. Nobody knew what to think. Then we heard a second plane crashed into the other tower. It was so unreal. Terrorism came to mind very quickly. After the next two planes went down, I was very scared. How many more planes were up there.
The one that hit home the most was the crash in Pennsylvania. I live in Texas now, but I grew in Pittsburgh. I was in fear for the people on that plane, but they showed how true Americans they were. They wouldn't let that plane crash into anymore buildings.
I hope that this country stays strong and diligent in the fight against terrorism. I pray that God will guide us in this time of sorrow and show us that He will protect us hold us close.
