911DA Story: Story

I was approaching the parking lot of my job when the first plane hit one of the towers. I could not believe it.
i got out my car and ran outside to see the second plane hit the other tower. Tears came to my eyes as i stood there waching in disbelief. My family members worked at the WTC and thanks GOD they were able to come out alive. it is so hard to see that the WTC is no longer there and all those lives were lost on that terrible day. I think 9-11-2001 should be a day to remember how a nation came together in one soul, family, color, religion and one nation. My heart and prayers goes out to all those people who lost a loved one on 9/11.
I know it is hard but at least I know we have 3 thousand angels watching over all of us.
GOD bless all the firefighters,police officers,ambulance workers, nurses and all the personnel that work so hard to help at the WTC and ground zero. You will always be our heroes. God bless all of us and The United States of America always.
