I got up early as usual. I was getting ready for work when I did decided to turn on the television. So I can watch the morning news as I drink my coffee.To my suprise every channel was pretty much reporting about the fire. One of the towers was on fire when out of nowhere came a 757 plane. It slamed into the second tower, a huge fire ball appeared. So I changed the channel I thought it has to be a mistake. But to my sadness it wasn't. Then I saw the worst thing I have ever seen. People were jumping out of the windows. Jumping to their deaths, it was unbeliveable. Then they reported about the pentagon getting hit. Then I knew this was the day that everything was going to change. The day America was brought down to its knees. Something that I will never forget. Then I found out the plane that went down in Pennsyvania. I was stunned mad, rage was biulding up inside me. I didn't know what to think I was scared and angry. I stayed glue to the television for hours. I knew I was watching history in the making. I think President Bush did a very good job leading this great country of ours. He kept the country in control. I pray for all the people that were affected by this terrible act of violence. May GOD Bless all of you............
