Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: I was enroute to work at the time the first plane hit. I walked into the office and a co-worker with a radio on said a plane had hit the World Trade Tower. I'm like, yeah, OK. But as the buzz continued and the second place hit, I knew it was for real. We were all in shock at the office. My company opened up a conference room and put on the TV all day for anyone who wanted to use the room and see what was going on. I went in that room frequently that day. I took my lunch in there and attempted to eat while watching the horror that had ensued. That night, like most of the nation, I was glued to Peter Jennings and his mastery of the situation until the wee hours of the night, and every night that week. Although I continued to sob while watching it, I could not seem to drag myself away from the TV all that week. Like the majority of Americans, I was concerned about my family members and their state of mind. I contacted all of my brothers and sisters and my mother to touch base and make sure they were OK. Later, I found out that my neice and her husband and children were at Disney World in FL that day and had to be evacuated. The one time they were able to take a vacation, it had to be cut short. I am one of the fortunate Americans who did not lose someone close to me that day. However, my heart was and still is with those who experienced the terrorism first-hand. God bless us all. And God bless those who feel such animosity in their souls to do such a thing to innocent people. Bless them so that this hate is removed from their hearts and we can all live as one people -- the human race. Thank you.
