911DA Story: Story

I was at my friend's apartment, we were going to eat breakfast. Somebody called and said that the WTC had been hit by a plane. When we turned on the TV I saw the second plane hit the south tower. I watched the collapse of both buildings. I remember thinking that this could not be real, but I could see it and I knew it was. I felt that this was done on purpose.

When the planes hit I thought about the people inside and when the buildings fell I thought about all the civilians, police and fire fighters inside. I hoped that god would protect them where ever they were.

After I thought about think about the families and how there family members and friends lost there lives. Also I thought about how the fire fighters and police officers made the ultimate sacrifice. I also I hope that I hope that god will take care of them all.

I think that we should never forget what happened that day.
