Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: It was early in the morning on the West Coast when the tragedies struck New York and Washington, DC. I was in the shower, when my husband Mike came in to tell me that planes had struck both the World Trade Center and the Pentagon. I threw on a robe, and sat tearfully transfixed as the horrors of that day unfolded on television. Our youngest son Mark, in the sixth grade, asked to stay home from school that morning because, he said, "This will be a time I will remember for the rest of my life." It was a day filled with heart-wringing tears, long hugs and loving calls--paired with fear, helplessness and enormous anger. The nightmarish visions of people jumping from burning buildings, of the gaping hole in the Pentagon, of the smoking twin towers and their horrific crumbling--and of the remnants of a heroic crash in the Pennsylvania countryside--haunt us all to this day. Today, I openly pray for the souls of those innocents and heroes killed September 11 and quietly pray that the angry souls still on this earth can find their way to peace.
