"...that's weired a small comuter plane has smacked into the wtc." i thought as i watched cnn in the morning of 9-11. i sat there and wondered as the reprters comentary was as confused as my thoughts... "how could someone be so stupid as to run their palne into the side of a building like this??" i sat in amazement as thoughts of confusion rushed through my head... ... i sat there for about 10 minutes and then i saw a helicoptor, no wait,...it's another small plane- no wait- maybe it's a news coverage plane- cause it's getting so close... no wait....
smack!! booom!!
"the plane? it disappered into the building right before my eyes. it crashed!" i thought as i gasped. one woman sitting with me screamed out loud.
this was no mistake. the united states of america, the land of the free was under attack. i was breathless, i was in shock- and i had no idea what to say....
i sat motionless for about an hour. families, friends and thousands of people will never be the same. the us under the gun, by a terrorist group. i still can't believe it.
i have watched many movies since sept. 11, and have seen scenes with the wtc towers in the skyline. i almost feel like vomiting or crying when i realize thos towers are no more.... and neither is thousands of mothers and fathers, lovers and brothers....sisters and girlfirends,...and a life time of stories.
i will not forget you. i will never forget you.
