911DA Story: Story

I didn't even know what had happened that day. I recieved a phone call from my niece telling me that the twin towers had been destroyed by terrorist. My Dad had just pasted away on Sept. 9 2001 so you can imagine the state that I was in. He went to the hospital with a swollen stomach to find out that he had pancreatic cancer. And a short 10 days later he was gone. I was already so upset over that, that I'm not real sure that what my niece told me even sank in till after we burried my Dad on Sept.12th. Then I began to watch it on TV. I still can't believe that someone could even think about doing something like that let alone actually doing it. All I can say is they will have to answer to God some day for that & I'm glad that I don't have to be the one that has to answer for that one. I still can't believe that people are that stupid that they would kill themselves for something like that. What good did it do them? They are gone too. So they took the lives of inicent people along with theirs what did they acomplish? A whole lot of heartache for the whole world. God will surely punish them for that. My heart goes out to all the families that had family members that's lives were lost that day. You will always remain in my prayers. And God bless you all!
