I was in my first hour class and my teacher ran in there and turn on the T.V. and said some thing bad has happened at first I was like what is this. Whats wrong with her. Then I heard it The world Trade Center has been hit by a plane my heart fall to the ground. I could not believe that some one hyjacked a plane and hit the wtc and the pentyon(I'm not a good speller sorry) I started to cry b/c I was just thinking of all the lives that was lost that day. It just broke my heart to hear that some one would be that cold heart to hurt inccoent people like that. well I have one thing to say! America is Strong and we can and we will get though this no one can ever take our freedom away and no one can ever take our pride and no one can take the meaning of the flag away from us. The ones who did this to us has to stand in front of God one day and they will get what they deserve.
God Bless America

After walking in the door from dropping off my daughter at daycare my friend called me to turn on CNN. She had told me that a plane had crashed into the WTC, I didn't believe her though. I thought she was pulling a fast one, so I turned on the t.v. and a couple minutes later I saw the second plane crash into the south building. I was horrified at what I saw. I could not believe that someone could hate a whole country so much that they could kill for that hate. I cried for almost two days. I did not know any of the victims or their families but just watching and hearing everything that was happening made me wish I could be there to help in some way. I watched for two straight days.

To me 9, 11, 2001 will not be forgotten.

I was at work. My boss was in a meeting. I got a call from the main office asking me did I hear what happened that a plane hit a building in NY. I said no and hung up. They called again shortly thereafter and said that a plane hit the second tower. I then turned on the radio and listened as the disaster was occuring. I typed a note in arial black, bold, size 48, landscape that read: "Terorist attack; plane hits tower one; plane hits tower two; plane hits Pentagon; towers collapse; plane crashed in Penn" and when into the office where the meeting was and taped the note to the wall. I could hear my boss saying, as I was leaving, "what does that say?" The meeting ended at this point and everyone gathered around the radio and listened. Even though I didn't know anyone that worked in the Twin Towers, worked at the Pentagon or anyone who was on United Airlines Flight 93 my heart and love goes out to all of the victims and their families. May God Bless America

I am English. On Sep 11 I was out in my garden - it was a nice day - I was actually up a ladder trimming a hedge! Suddenly a passer by said - go inside and switch on your Tv - all hell has broken loose - something terrible has happened.

I did just that and I could not believe what I was seeing on the screen. It was so unreal - like a movie. It took some time for it to sink in - I felt sick to my stomach. As it unfolded we were dumbstruck - all those poor people.

No one I knew was far from their TV for hours even days. The streets were very quiet. People spoke in hushed voices. Many were very angry.

How can anyone do this thing in the name of any religion? They were not martys who earned a place in heaven, they were and still are evil men.

Hi my name is Brittney! I remember where I was on 9-11-01. When I was first told I was half asleep and I really didn't give it any attion and I went back to sleep. Then when it really hit me I stared balling. I was crying so hard and I didnt stop till i fell asleep. I went to school today and some of students were like paying it no attion and acted like it was any other day. I wanted to cry because I dont know where my dad lives and he could have been in the towers. Everytime I start to think about it i want to cry. I think how could anything like that happen to America. But God has a porpus for everything that happens. thank you for listening to what I have to say.
Love in Christ Brittney
