Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: I, as everyone else, will never forget that day. I was at work and received a phone call from my mother saying planes had hit the world trade centers and the pentagon. I thought she must have been mistaken. But it was all too true. After hearing reports on the radio someone in the office turned on a television and we witnessed a horror I thought was never possible. The images sent a chill through me like I was frozen. Just thinking of the thousands of people who had died and were going to die just overwhelmed me. Though I didn't lose a loved one in the attacks my heart just sank for all those who had. Watching the images on tv, hearing the reports and seeing graphic pictures via email of people jumping to their deaths is forever in grained in my memory. Though some of my fears have diminished I still have an eerie feeling when I see a plane in the sky or when I think about what a beatiful calm day Sept. 11th began as. Through it all I just have to continue to thank God for his presence that day and everyday because so many more lives could have been lost. But through his grace and mercy and comfort we've managed to make it through this year and we will continue to make it with God's help. I just try to appreciate life more now by spending as much quality time as possible with family and friends and I pray that our country nor any other one will have to go through this ever again. This event in out lives will never be forgotten. America lets continue to be unified not just during this time of war but always.
