I came home from school to see my mom glued to the tv set, then i had asked her if the rumors that i heard in school about a plane crashing into the trade towers was true. As soon as those words came out of my mouth, i saw a rerun of it on tv. Even thought i had no clue what was going on I had this weird feeling in my stomach, like something wasn't right. I had been caught in a daze the whole time, my eyes as well as my mothers eyes were glued to the tv. It felt like hours but it was only a mtter of minutes, then the phone rang, it was my cousin, the next few moments i don't remember that well, all i remember was asking my mom who it was and why she looked how she did. Then as she hung up the phone, she burst into tears, it was my grandmother, she had been on one of the planes to go and see my other cousin. And that was all i remember about that day.

My life was affected by the loss of a family member, that changed my life in everyway possible.

All the heros who were involved.

Yes, it has more meaning behind it now.
