911DA Story: Story




On this day of September 11 2001, I was outdoors
washing my car, and enjoying the blue sky and sunshine
and the phone ring , I went indoors to answer it and
it was my sister telling me to turn on the tv .
As I did just that and to my horror I tuned in just as the second airplane hit the tower ,and to say that I could not belive , my eyes is a understatment.
All that I could do was sit on the sofa and cry .
I cryed for our country and the people of New York
and prayed for God to give this country's leaders
the strength to get us thru this disaster.


New York, I love you and may God always
be with us and watch over our country.
