Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: I don't have a "first hand" story. I did not lose any loved ones or personal friends. My boss was in New York City on business that day. We were so worried because we didn't know how close he was to the towers. We couldn't get through on his cell phone or to the hotel where he was staying. All we could do was watch the news coverage in horror and disbelief! A friend in New York finally called us to let us know our boss was fine and that his meeting wasn't scheduled first thing in the morning. Thank God! After I knew my boss was safe all I wanted to do was be with my daughter and my family. Thats just what I did. One year later I still can not believe that this happened in America, in this day and age. I thought this was something we only read about in history books or that my father and his generation and beyond had experienced. I am still angry. I want those responsible to be punished. Their day will come that I know for sure! They will be judged. I grieve for all those we lost and the families they left behind. The saddness is almost too much. I can not understand how people can be so evil. I pray that they change their ways and realize how wrong they are. I pray that as a nation we will heal. I pray that our leaders make the right choices. I pray that we will never have to endure this type of senseless tragedy again. We all have such different perspectives now and our priorities have shifted. May we all take nothing for granted and find peace and love in our hearts and lives.
