Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: During school (second period) there was an announcement made to turn on all the televisions throughout the building. As the class observed what was happening everything was silent and everyone was stunned. It seemed like it was a graphic movie clip or something fictional. Definetly, not an event that would ever happen to us "Americans". Well it did and it was a horrble day, the place where I grew up was destructed physically and emotionally. To add to that my father had just left for Long Island that morning. I recall breaking down and crying letting out my feelings about whether or not he was on one of those unfortunate planes. But it wasn't his time yet and the Lord made sure that plane was alerted to turn and take a route to Washington and away from danger. Today all these flashbacks come to mind and I pray for those many many unfortunate families who weren't able to see their son, daughter, mother, father or even distant relatives who weren't able to greet each other for one last time. I learned that we should live life to the fullest because like last year in one minute everything can change. Also don't take your loved ones for granted because you never know what tomorrow will bring.
