911DA Story: Story
sleeping late.....with my toddler.......i awoke to numerous # of calls and messages on my answering machine all saying in a panic "turn on the t.v. now!we are being attacked!be careful...are you ok?" because no one really knew if this was just new york....or all over the u.s. etc......
I went to the t.v. and saw the plane hit on a replay and then i saw the second one hit.....and my mouth fell open and i could not shut it and my hand went to my mouth with utter speechlessness except to think " oh my god" and then biblical
thoughts of " is the world ending? are we at war?" because i knew i had not thought of it in ages but right away i knew
or thought that " GOD had removed his protective hand from the U.S." because we had let this world go such astray from our kids to our lifestyles etc with total acceptance by doing nothing or very little.
I did not watch anything else on t.v. for 3 months,went to a revival about revelations every night for 30 days because i thought i needed to brush up on my religion and read the bible asking alot of questions that i had never asked and i am 40.
I think it made everyone reevaluate what is important and how vunerable we are and how quick it all could be different
in a instance with a blink of a eye .....so treasure what
we have every moment.
