Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: On the morning of September 11, 2001 I stood just a few blocks from the World Trade Center in New York City. Like many others that day I called my mother from my cell phone to let her know I was okay and stayed on the phone with her for almost two hours of the whole event. She still had her loved one at the end of it all...many others around the country weren`t so lucky. It was the most traumatic event in my entire life. I will never forget the sights and sounds knowing all the people that died so horribly right before my eyes. I will never recover from the shock of running on the streets of NYC from the debris of a falling 110 story office tower. The sound of my mother screaming helplessly for me to run as she watched it live on TV from across the country is burned into my mind. I will always feel this guilt for escaping and surviving while those people had to go through that horror. On 7Sept2001 I had visited the observation deck on the roof of tower 2 and felt weak thinking about falling off that building. Then days later I stared up at those trapped people from the safety of the street as they were burning, falling and living my worst nightmare. It tears me apart inside. I dedicate the rest of my life to their memory. I won`t forget them. GOD BLESS AMERICA!
