9/11 When the world wept....

               Where were you on 9/11 that memorable day when the nation was in complete and utter chaos? I can tell you were I was in the shower! I had woken up and was getting ready for class, when I remember seeing my grandmother looking worried as she was watching television so I went into her room and saw the news with her. I was in utter and complete shock, we were under attack, the world was under attack. I remember my heart sinking and my eyes welling up with tears, before I started to cry I rushed to my room and got dressed then called VCC. The college was not having classes, so I went to work with my dad, stayed there for a few hours then went back home I could not concentrate. I sat in front of the television almost all day after I got home, I sat there and cried. Then I started to worry about my family in the east, when I ask my grandmother if she tried to call she said she did all day and no answer. But she was calm like if she knew the family was all ok, and gladly they were, but the other people around were not. I could not help my self from watching the news. I remember thinking OMG I went to that building, was in that building, ... and now its gone!!
                I feel sorry for the ones that lost their lives yet also thankful for those who put there life in harms way to save those who can't. I am also glad that our country can stay together under such tough and sad circumstances. I truly hope we all have learned and kept in mind all that we have seen on that day. I hope that we also teach those who did not witness the horror, the rest of us felt. May God Bless all those who died and those who fought to help and protect those who could not.
