Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: When a co-worker first came and told us a plane had gone into the World Trade Center, I thought, it's just a small plane that accidently hit the builing. Then as we gathered around a small T.V. set and saw the picture, I knew this wasn't an accident. We saw the second plane hit and my stomach dropped!. In my head, I figured , that the people would get out of the building, or had gotten out. Later, when I saw the first tower fall, my heart fell with it. I was scared, sad , angry and mostly , in shock. It was one of those times when you want to cry but you can't. It was like watching an old King Kong movie. The scene where Kong destroyed the sky scrapers. I hoped I was dreaming and when I woke up someone would tell me I was crazy. This didn't happen and I'm not crazy!! I felt some violated and vulnerable. This was not supposed to happen in our country. We were the Big guys that nobody messed with!! My heart was broken to know that these innocent people woke up that day and didn't have any idea that they would die. I felt the pain and the horror these people must have gone through. I prayed that they went quickly and painless. But after seeing pictures of people jumping and falling from the building i knew, they felt pain and fear. No one should die that way. The families waiting for news. The children arriving home from school and no parents to greet them. My life will never be the same. Our country has a big whole in its heart!!!
