Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: The morning of 9-11, I was in my bed sleeping. I had just came back from a 6 month working period in N.J. and was missing the north terribly! My brother woke me up and told me that something terrible was going on and that I had to see it for myself. As I turned on the T.v. I could remember holding my chest and wondering what was going on. My brothers were just eating breakfast nonchalantly because they were not able to grasp what was going on; Not in detail. I remember thinking what would I do if I were there, probably run like hell down the flight of stairs not giving a damn about anyone or anything else. Than I felt guilty about thinking like that. I felt confused because that would be the coward thing to do, wouldn't it? As my brother went to get dressed he joked about me missing that area. It was than that I sat him down to explain to him, that this could've happen anywhere to anybody. As he sat there just letting my words breeze through, I decided to get a bit more detail. I explain to him that there were 1,000's of people trapped inside a building made of steel. One of the tallest building's in New York, I also explain to him that the planes that hit the buildings were filled with Jet Fluid. I asked him if he could understand why people would jumped to there death to avoid getting burned alive. It's not something you take for a joke or likely. It's something you pray about and hold on to your love ones and thank God that you have them. Those people didn't deserve to die, they were doing there job at work, making money to take care of their love ones. Nobody deserve to die like that, Nobody!
