September 11, a day that started with promise and ended in dismay. I was on my way to Mount St. Mary?s College, for a 9:10am Philosophy of Religion Class. Suddenly, as I drove down the crowded 405N freeway, n interruption on the National News Station, was abruptly interrupted with reporters from New York frantically reporting the beginning tragedies of the day as the planes flew into the Twin Towers. All I could think is, ?Wow, our life has just changed in a matter of minutes.? As I arrived at school I immediately called my minister of LACC LAX sector who was expected to leave for New York this morning. Tears, welled in my eyes as I thought of my finance, mom, and family. Now, it is a year later and my life has changed drastically since that tragic day. I have graduated since then, got married, and have a baby on the way. I know understand how much this is as much as a spiritual battle as it is a physical battle. Protect us God.
