this day in history


i remember this day. i was in 5th grade art. they told us to close the door, turn the lights off, and turn the tv on. i was 10 years old sitting there, staring at the tv with tears streaming down my face as i watched the horror of these buildings collapsing only thinking about all the people inside. my mom came and picked me up an hour later. we came home turned the tv on and sat there with awe on our faces hoping we wouldn't get the phone call we were dreading.  my uncle was a ny firefighter. he was on the crew that was called first to the towers. He saved many lives but couldnt save his own. Got the phone call we never wanted to get. A few hours later my cousin in boston called us. My older cousin was flying to LA for a buisness conference. he was on the first hijacked plane. He crashed into the world trade center around 845 between floors 93 and 99. He did not survive. This is a very important day to my family. please say a prayer and never forget this day in history.

Solace in your bereavement Liz...

May God grant you and family that strength.

 

When I first saw the TV covering of that event,, I thought twas an advertisement for strong building materials....

Liz,
Yesterday in my hometown, we had a celebration of Life and Rememberance that centered around some steel beams from the WTC that our county has aquirred and will be building a memorial around. I brought flowers and laid my hands on those beams, sent up prayers to those we lost, those who remain who suffer that loss daily. The stream of folks whos did so was endless. It was extemely powerful and I feel blessed to have been able to pay my respects. Keeping you in thought and prayer. Peace.

Prayers to all. I didn't know anyone personally who died but we were all affected by the trauma.
