Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: I can still remember the feeling that came over me when I received a phone call from my sister on the morning of September 11, 2001. When she told me that an airplane had just flew into the world trade center and they were calling it a terrorist act. I felt a fear unlike anything I had ever experienced before. She told me to turn on the news and as we sat there watching the chaos, the second plane hit and my fear began to grow even more. You hear about things like this happening in different parts of the world, but you never expect that anything like this is going to happen here in the United States. Then as we were watching, the third and fourth planes crashed and all I could do is wonder what is coming next? We have a habit of taking things for granted and when something this disastrous happens, it makes you rethink everything. Being a young mother of three, it is really scary thinking that you have to worry about these kind of acts taking place and how you can possibly keep your family safe. You never know when or where something like this is going to happen so you can never be fully prepared to deal with this kind of tragedy. The one thing that stands out in my mind the most about 911 is standing outside in my yard with my children looking up at the sky watching the military airplanes fly overhead after the last attack. I won't ever be able to watch airplanes flying overhead anymore without feeling apprehensive.
