911DA Story: Story

I was at home like any other day. I turned on the tv and the channel already on was the 700 Club. As I watched I thaught they were talking about a movie in the theaters. But then I realized the horror of what I was seeing. I remember feeling it was all to much to believe. How can someone do something like this!!! I continued to watch and still wonder what was really happening. Terrorists!!! But these were our own planes. How! Why! Then the next plane strikes and then the Pentagon and Pennsylvania. I feel the need to call my mom and see if she is watching.I want to call my husband at work but know I can't. I could not take my eyes off the tv. Everything repeated over and over again and I know it was all real but I still could not imagin it. Hatered fills me and I cry all day. It is not even anyone I know but I feel for everyone who hurts. These people were Americans and we will never forget and never forgive. It affected all of us in someway, maybe you don't know it. But if you think about what happened and you feel any kind of emotion....it affected you. GOD BLESS AMERICA!!
