911DA Story: Story
I was sitting at my computer going over lesson plans, and my wife called me into the living room to watch the news about the first plane hitting the first tower. In disbelief, we sat there and watched the second plane hit the second tower, and later watched both towers crumble to the ground.
As an American, I cried like a baby. It was as if something very valuable had been taken away from me ... my identity ... and I was vunerable and scared. And it was a horrible feeling to watch so many people in the two towers perish. And the continuation of the attacks with the Pentagon being hit and people dying and the fourth plane crashing in Pennsylvania with more innocent deaths made me angry. I'm still angry
