911DA Story: Story

I was at work when everything happened. My boss came running up the stairs in a panic telling me that a plane just flew into one of the buildings. I was in shock. It didn't really hit me until we turned on the TV at work and watched as the second plane flew into the other tower. Everyone around me was stunned and no one was working. They let everyone go home, and all I did was watch in horror what was happening on TV. The thing that hurt me the most was watching the people jump from the buildings. I will never forget that day on September 11. It was the worst thing I have ever seen. All I wanted to do was be with my family. It was my brothers 25th birthday on that day, and I know he will never forget what happened. My heart goes out to all those who lost family and friends in that horrible terrorist attack. May God be with you all and keep you safe.
