Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: The morning of 9-11 seemed to be just like any other morning. I was two days back from Arizona, tired and jet lagged. I woke up just in time to stumble in front of the TV set and see the replay of the first plane hit the towers. My mother was watching it with the utmost disbelief. She turned to me and all she could say is ?look?. I didn?t pay it very much attention, I figured some idiot navigated off course and lost control of the plane. So I proceeded to the shower. After a long, hot, refreshing shower I now felt myself to be more assertive. So as I stumbled back into the living room to see if they had discovered why the plane went off course ?BOOM,? the second one hit. This is when it finally occurred to me that this was no accident. From that moment on, I sat their glued to the television set, watching helplessly. It almost seemed like one event after the other, the whole day was filled with terror, the Twin Towers the Pentagon, and the third plane that was neutralized before anything else could happen. I believe that everyone that day in America watched with disbelief and sadness in their hearts. I don?t think there is a person alive who didn?t want to help in some way on that tragic day. I believe the day of 9-11 has helped to rekindle that fire we call the American spirit Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
