Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: On 9-11-01 I was at work doing my usual morning work when the news spread through the office of the plane that crashed into the first tower. We were all shocked. We had not yet known that it was a terrorist attack. We thought it was an accident. Personally, I felt a deep sadness for the passengers and the people in the tower. I was praying that they would live but I could not imagine how with such an impact. Then we got news of the second plane going into the towers. I then knew truly America was being attacked. Not sure why but a deep fear arose in me, not knowing what to expect next. Then we heard of the third and fourth flights going down. I can tell you that I have never experienced the feelings I felt on 9-11. All of us at work were calling our families just to make sure they were okay. Knowing full well, that they were but just wanting to make that contact. We take family for granted so much, that when something like this happens, you just want to feel close to them. I can not imagine the loss and the pain the families are experiencing, the firefighters, the police, all of those involved, it was unimaginable...When I finally got home from work and actually saw the footage on the news, I hardly believed my eyes at such terror. I felt as if I was watching a television movie. There is so much out there that is fiction that seeing it for real is almost unbearable. I watched as much coverage the first couple of weeks, and still do watch a lot of the coverage. It is something that you do not want to forget about ever. I am a God fearing person and I believe that this terror has called this GREAT NATION back to GOD and PRAYER and patriotism to OUR COUNTRY AND FLAG. Where we need to be. For God has truly BLESSED THE USA. Through the next couple of days after 9-11, I cried, seeing the coverage, people looking for their family in such desolation. It made me think of what it is going to be like when JESUS comes to carry us home. If we think this was CHAOS, just wait until the rapture takes place. It will not just in New York City, but worldwide. This terrorist attack was a horrible thing to happen and I am glad that some good has come out of it. But I do with all my heart pray for peace and strength for everyone involved from the families to all the workers. God can give peace that no one can understand... I am also so Thankful for a PRESIDENT that gives so much and yields to God and his word for direction. My hat is off to President Bush and my prayers are with him and his family and administration. GOD BLESS THE USA. Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
