Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: When I arrived at my work station, a co-worker said a plane had just crashed into the World Trade Center. By the look on his face I realized this was a very serious moment. Hurriedly I raced through the news sites on the internet. It was just moments later a report of the 2nd plane crash. My mind raced quickly trying to understand what was happening...are we about to have a war in the United States? Who would do such a horrific act? Panic set in for moments. What more will happen today? I picked up the phone to call my Dad and tell him I love him. My father had served many years in the military and survived several wars. At that moment I needed him to be my rock. All i could think about was how I wanted to go home and spend the day with my children. The reality was I had to educate a 10 year old about how the world can be have some very cruel individuals who lash out towards innocent people. That death is very final. Never take anything for granted. How our ancestors fought for this country to be a more civilized race treating humanity with dignity and respect. All the past wars in the history pages are about those who fought to make my life free. Prayers were said continuosly through out the day, along with tears of fear,anguish of lives lost. Every time I see a picture of the trade towers i have a beautiful vision of 2811 angels raising up from the dust to the heavens, almost if you could picture doves being released flying upwards with peaceful looks on there faces. All the people who lost a love one on this day are very special people. They were given a Guardian Angel to look over them. Angels that lived with them a part of their lives here on earth, now watch over them from the heavens. May God bless the earth! Thank you to all the war veterans past, present, and future for fighting for our freedom. May God bless the earth.
