Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: I was on my way to work with NPR on my car radio on a lovely Sept day in eastern Kansas when the first plane hit. I arrived at my office just in time to get to a conference room where several employees stood in disbelief at what had just happened. And then the 2nd plane hit! I was born and grew up in a small mid-New Jersey town and moved away before the trade center towers were built, but I followed their progress with great interest. My husband, who had never been to NYC before, and I visited the City a few yrs ago and had a drink at the WTC (my husband had to borrow a jacket since he didn't have one with him that day; he's short and the jacket sleeves were about 8" too long... but the view was great!). A year later I still can't believe that this terribe assault took place and I still cry when faced with sstories, etc about the event and it's ramifications... With all it's problems, I've always loved the City; it's a symbol of my beloved country to me. I pray that nothing even remotely similar to this ever happens again here in the USA. The people of the world, especially those who are leaders or who wield great influence, need to come to the understanding that all people need the same things to flourish. We need to learn to empathize with others, to trust, to not covet the property or land of others, to share and to live in peace with our neighbors - whether next door or across the ocean. I pray that those things will soon be common to all and those lessons will soon be learned. God bless us all and guide us to His way...
