Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: I had just got on the computer and was going to see the last part of Good Morning America and the beginning of Live with Regis and Kelley. I had brought the internet up and had not turned on the television, when my cousin, Shirley Stringer Schrimsher, sent me an instant message and said to turn the Television on because there was a problem at the World Trade Center. When I turned it on, the first plane had already hit, but the second one had not. As I watched I was stunned as the rest of America and the world was when the second plane hit the 2nd tower. It was shock and unbelief that something so horrible was happening here in America, the land of the free. This is the country that millions of people have come to live and raise a family and have freedoms that other countries do not have. This is the country that my husband's grandfather came to live to have freedom from oppression. As the program went on we learned about the Pentegon being hit. We also learned about the hijacked plane that was flying in Pennsylvania which crashed due to an undertaking by a group of courageous passengers. The thought of the lives of innocent people, especially the children, being taken by an act of horror such as this is still unreal. What kind of people hate America so much that they take not only their own life, but the lives of innocent people? Our country has had open arms for all kinds of people in all walks of life. How dare someone do this to our country and our people!!! It's been a year, but it has changed the lives of not only Americans, but people everywhere. Nobody is exempt from this kind of hatred and misguidance. We are not promised a tomorrow. We need to love and appreciate our families, friends, and neighbors. We need to love God and obey his word which is the Bible. Everyone will be accountable for their actions, whether good or bad. May God bless America and Let Freedom Ring.
