Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: I woke up to my favortite disc jockey on the Kiis FM radio station speaking with a serious and sad tone of voice, instead of his usuall funny, and uplifting laughter. In my ten years of listening to this man I had never heard anything but an energetic happy man. I was scared. I jumped out of bed and went to the living room to turn on the t.v. I was horrified. In shock. The day outside was the most beautiful September day, but most people were in their homes glewed to the t.v or listening to the radio while on the road. I drove around looking for a store that sold American flags, but I went to a few before I could find one. I found the small flags with wooden sticks at a grocery store. I bought two, one for my car and the other for my house. Everything was so surreal, sadness overwhelmed me and tears were puouring down my face. Never had I felt such impotence and genuine pain for thousands of people unknown to me. My heart ached, and still does for all the inocent lives lost. A couple of days later when I walked outside my building our American flag was being displayed by all the apartments around. It was beautiful. I was filled with pride, hope and love. This day shook America, but didn't break it's spirit. We all united to get through this, and we all did it with genuine love,and love seeks to protect and aid; it is unselfish, and it moves us in miraculos ways. We are all the created to the image of the lord Jesus Christ, and he is love. Sincerely, Norma Y.
