I did not know any of the people that died on September 11, 2001, however I do feel the pain. We as Americans have to stand together, strong and proud. We are One Nation, Under God. On September 11, 2001 I was at work as most others were. I first heard of the attack from a co-worker whose husband contacted her. I then turned my radio on and stopped everything else. I could not believe what I was hearing. Once I realized the severity of what was really going on I called my husband who was home sick, I then called the sitters so that I could hear my son's voice. Then I just sat there in shock listening to the horror unfold like some terrible movie. It has not stopped, I do not know if it will ever stop. I have so much fear in me, for my family, friends,a nd fellow Americans. What happened to us, what happened to America and what happened to World Peace?
