Well said Al!
I too remember what I was doing September 11th 2001. I was sitting in my school lybrary finnishing up some work when I notice everybody standing outside in the galleria of my college. All their faces were centered on the television. Then I looked at the screen and I was in complete silence at the images I was seeing take place in front of me. I felt scared because my school is so close to the Cleveland Intenational airport. At first I thought we were being shot at by missles but then I saw the planes. So then I went to my first class not sure why I was going but we were evacuated from the college a few minutes later as the staff told us to go home.
I can remember getting home and seeing the look on my mothers face. I have never seen such a look. And the images are still vivid in my mind today. For the whole day my mom and I just sat there watching the television angry and depressed at this. I prayed to God that day for the horror to stop. For the meaning of being an American changed for me that day. And it changed for the good of our country. My prayers go out to the families who have suffered the los in which they had to endure for a year now. May God Bless them.
Paramiteabe...
