            <text>i was asleep on my couch when the phone rang.i got up and answerd the phone it was my husband. he told me to turn on the t.v fast. i asked why and he said just do it. and i wish i wouldn't have. because when i did i saw the most heart wrenching thing . the world trade center has been crashed into !by two airplane's no less. the first thing to cross my mind was how could this happen.then all of a sudden they were comeing down falling to the grownd like two clouds of dust and ruble.i saw people runnig being coverd by huge clouds of dust.i saw cheildren crying looking for their parent's. everyone so scared.the look's on their face's was enough to make you cry . i was in tear's . my heart breaking for everyone of them.i then relized that many sole's were lost . everyone of them haveing a personality all there own. hero's in there own right.wishing i was there to help but knowing there wasn't anything i could of done made me feel so helpless.thanking god that my husband and childerin were not there.and wishing i could have takein the place of all the parent's lost to their children or the grandparent's or aunt's uncle's,or brother's sisters,or children lost to their parent's.wishing i could have taken on the pain myself to ease theirs.and then i was angry to those who cared so littile about the perecious life's they took.and the pain they caused.wishing i was in front of them to stand up for our country.or wishing i found them before they hurt so many.but what was devistateing was the fact that those left behind were in for so much pain and there wasn't anything i could to to help heal the hurt.so i turned to god and prayed . paryed that everyone of the wonderful personality's lost and all the hero's lost would forever live on and the one's left behind that god would ease there pain,.and i continoud to do so everyday.one thing i know is this is a wonderful country and i would stand up and fight for it anytime or day.for this country is mine and i will not stand by while someone so eivil,and full of hatered,come's and snatches away the  futer generation's of our world,the leader's of our live's the one's who will make life better.so i tell you who tryes to come against my family,friends,or my country beware.for you'll have a hard road to hoe if you do. thank you for the opertunity to tell you how i feel and how much i wish i could have helped.sincerly jennifer walford</text>
