NMAH Story: Story

I had spent all morning im my garden , tidying it up as the sun shone here in Scotland,U.K.
we don't get a lot of sunshine and thats why I was enjoying all the peace and calm..
When my neighbour across the road came out and told me what had happened.
I could NOT believe what I was hearing, I ran inside and switched my television on, I could only stare in horror and disbelief in what I was witnessing, was this REALLY happening, my god!!
I stood in eerie silence, transfixed to my TV screen, not daring to move or take my eyes from this horrible event.
I had to take a seat as the grief and enormity of it all was slowly creeping in, I was asking myself questions, expecting someone to answer them for me.

WHO DONE THIS? HOW CAN THIS HAPPEN? THIS DOES NOT HAPPEN IN REAL LIFE...!

One by one people came home from work and swithced on there TV's , schoolchildren were glued to their screens, everyone not believing what they were witnessing.

Even now, today ,it all seems so vivid , forever flashing in our eyes and minds.

WE WILL NEVER FORGET WE WILL NEVER FORGIVE.
GOD BLESS AMERICA.!!

NMAH Story: Life Changed

I feel so insecure and so worried for our childrens future, and the future of all mankind.
I am wary of flying, but do so want to visit New York.

NMAH Story: Remembered

How the resolve, the bravery, How United the world became.
The people who lost their lives, live in our hearts evermore.
The American People.

NMAH Story: Flag

I did fly an american flag in my e-mails around the world.
When I lokk at the American flag, I see a brave and proud nation.
