911DA Story: Story

I had just arrived my office and ready to start another regular day when one of my co-workers yelled out that he had just received a phone call from his wife at home and heard the news on TV. Not truly understanding what was taking place thought the story was just minor. Minutes later I received a phone call from a friend that the second tower was hit. Immediately I thought about my co-workers that worked in the Financial are next to the Twin Towers. I started trying to reached them at the office and mobile but to no avail.
In my office we have a TV when I started watching to see what was happening. Immediately I felt so much sadness and a tear was running down my cheek. I started listening to the reports I thought of the people at the tower I wished I could do some magic to make this nightmare go away.
I felt husbands, fathers, son, daughters were dying because of evil people that have no regards for lives.
We love our country, our freedom, and our lives and that is why "WE WILL STAND UNITED FOREVER"
GOD BLESS AMERICA!!!!!
