Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: I was sitting at my desk when my boss came rushing through the office on his cell phone, stopped at my desk and said a plane just crashed into the World Trade Center. I immediately turned on the radio and went to the CNN website and actually watched in horror! Within minutes I could not belives what I was witnessing, another plan. I called my husband on his cell phone (he had not heard the news yet). "Oh my gosh, honey two planes just crashed one right afterthe other into the World Trade Center" not believing what I was tellin him, he went into a conferenc room and turned on the t.v. and we both watched in silence. At first I thought "oh my gosh" but when the second plane crashed I got such a sick feeling that this was a deliberate act of some sick individual. The rest of the day in our office building was a blurr. When I returned home from work, I was never so happy to see my children and my husband. All sports and after school activities in our area had been canceled. Together as a family we watched station after station until the wee hours of the morning. (we taped about 3 entire videos and packed them away). Having just lost my mother just 2 months prior, my heart just broke in two for all of the victims and their families. You know you heard your great grandparents speak of world war I, II and neighbors talk about viet nam, and now we experience this - the thought of war horrifies me, when I watch the history channel, I cry for all the people who lived/died through world war I, II, viet nam, the korean war. I pray that I nor my children have to go through that devistation. Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
