Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: I will never forget the moment I heard of the attacks in New York City. I just dropped off my children at school and heard on the radio of the first plane hitting the World Trade Center. When I got home and turned on my t.v. I saw the unbeleviable sight of that first explosion. Then right before my eyes on that t.v. the second plane flew into the second tower. I will never forget the horror of that sight. It almost did'nt seem real. I'll never forget wanting to get my children out of school and be with my family. I don't think I'm alone in feeling that we all felt completely helpless and terrified of what would happen next. The news reports just kept reporting one after the other of other plane crahes, I've never felt so insecure about our safety as I did in that moment. I then understood what the WWII veterans must have felt at Pearl Harbor, our freedom was now compromised. Unfortunately a tragic event made me understand what freedom really does mean. I will never take for granted again what it means to be an American, and how proud I am to live in the greatest nation in the world. God Bless America!!
