I was at work, and someone came running through the hall saying an airplane had hit the World Trade center.
Of course everyone ran to the nearest T.V .
The facility where I work had provided T.V's all over the building so that everyone could know what was happening.
My heart sank as I sat in the cafateria watching the first building collapse.
I couldn't believe what was happening. I started praying for all those people, and their families. I was so scared of what all of this meant. Was there going to be another attack?
I live in Jacksonville Florida, 5 minutes from Mayport Naval station, and an hour from Nas Jax. Were all the navy bases going to be attacked?
I remember feeling so sad for along time over all the people that lost their lives, and their families.

Yes I think my life has changed. I realized how we take life for granted. We have to make sure we are right with God everyday. Don't wait to tell your family and friends how much you love and care for them because you never know if that will be that last time you see them.

How America came together in Prayer, and the endless giving and helping of people from all over the U.S.

I think there should be a Memorial for ALL that have lost their lives in this tragety.
