Thanks Hope, I remember I was glued to the TV in shock and disbelief, watching these horrors going on...yet still not being able to turn away. That was that day that changed every Americans life.
God bless those innocent lives taken and all those that were left behind.

The Call
Dedicated to all the American heroes of 9/11,
of history, of today and of tomorrow.
In the time of crisis and trouble, one of our first thoughts is, "Where can I get someone to help me?" One of the genuine blessings of this great country of ours is the fact that we do have emergency and military professionals who are dedicated and committed to public safety and national defense. Sadly, this high and special calling sometimes requires the ultimate sacrifice of health and even life itself. Too often these heroic efforts occur in the absence of expressions of gratitude from those who are being served.
The alarm call rings out on a dreadful day.
"Look up at the horror and come right away!
The need is so great, lives hang on the edge."
"We offer ourselves," is their sworn pledge.
Sirens sound out as heroes swing into action.
Though peril abounds, there is no retraction.
Reaching out for others and giving their hand,
They stand in the gap and die where they stand.
They rush in to rescue while others rush out.
The pathway of safety so rarely their route.
Danger rides with them each and every day.
"The security of others first," is what they say.
It does not take long for our heroes to die,
Leaving many loved ones who wonder why.
Speak up you patriots. Speak up and shout!
Sacrifice and courage are what it's all about.
Stand up thankful citizens of this nation great.
Give honor to all who have entered God's gate.
To those who continue in faithful service today,
When you next greet them, what will you say?
"...In their lives and in their death they were not divided: they were swifter than eagles, they were stronger than lions. How are the mighty fallen in the midst of the battle!" (II Samuel 1:23,25)

I was at the hospital getting some minor surgery that morning and saw the 2nd plane hit. We were all (doctors & nurses, etc) standing there in shock. Needless to say since I'm in PA, hubby pulled the kids out of school because nobody knew at that point where the 4th plane was. They did know it was somewhere over PA.

Quin was just an infant and John barefly remembers it. I just know the sky was quiet for a week except for the milatary jets. My kids were little and when the news was constantly on tv 24/7, we had to turn it off because they just did not understand what was going on. I remember just playing lots of board games and focusing on their homework and other things.

Where Were You (When The World Stopped Turning)" - Alan Jackson
Where were you when the world stopped turning that September day
Out in the yard with your wife and children
Working on some stage in LA
Did you stand there in shock at the site of
That black smoke rising against that blue sky
Did you shout out in anger
In fear for your neighbor
Or did you just sit down and cry
Did you weep for the children
Who lost their dear loved ones
And pray for the ones who don't know
Did you rejoice for the people who walked from the rubble
And sob for the ones left below
Did you burst out in pride
For the red white and blue
The heroes who died just doing what they do
Did you look up to heaven for some kind of answer
And look at yourself to what really matters
I'm just a singer of simple songs
I'm not a real political man
I watch CNN but I'm not sure I can tell you
The difference in Iraq and Iran
But I know Jesus and I talk to God
And I remember this from when I was young
Faith hope and love are some good things he gave us
And the greatest is love
Where were you when the world stopped turning that September day
Teaching a class full of innocent children
Driving down some cold interstate
Did you feel guilty cause you're a survivor
In a crowded room did you feel alone
Did you call up your mother and tell her you love her
Did you dust off that bible at home
Did you open your eyes and hope it never happened
Close your eyes and not go to sleep
Did you notice the sunset the first time in ages
Speak with some stranger on the street
Did you lay down at night and think of tomorrow
Go out and buy you a gun
Did you turn off that violent old movie you're watching
And turn on "I Love Lucy" reruns
Did you go to a church and hold hands with some stranger
Stand in line and give your own blood
Did you just stay home and cling tight to your family
Thank God you had somebody to love
I'm just a singer of simple songs
I'm not a real political man
I watch CNN but I'm not sure I can tell you

I was at work. A wife of one of my employees called and told me that a plane had hit one of the towers. She was a bit frantic and asked if I thought it was an accident, terrorism or if our air control system was out of whack or went off line for some reason. I told her she better hope it was an accident or terrorism because if our air traffic control system went completely down there were a few thousand more airplanes that could run into about anything at any time.

Will never forget it. getting ready for work. i could not believe my eyes. my hubby was off shore. the rumors flew about bombing oil platforms. We kept the radio on all day. I worked in a daycare. the older children who understood were frightened. The younger ones could sense our fear. I will never forget the shock and the fear.

It was just gone 2 pm in Ireland, my wife phone me in a panic telling me that a plane had hit the world trade center. I got off the phone and walked out of my office to tell others, and it was creepy, suddenly all the phones started ringing in the office.

I took my daughter up the towers a couple of weeks before. We still tremble. My girlfriend in Poughkeepsie called me during that terrible night - I thought it was a horror movie on the television. Two academics and their children on their way to where I worked were on the first plane. My best girlfriend's daughter who worked in Wall Street was sick that day, and lived. Everyone has a story. I was in New York the following year and went to Ground Zero to pay my respects. We stood in the snow. There were a lot of people just standing there. Silent. It was like being in a cathedral.

My best friend from school went to a convention that was held on a lower floor of one of the towers just a few days before it happened, i think it really shook her up thinking what if the timing had been different for her convention, she could have been there that day!

I was on a walk on a beautiful sunny morning here with my dear
sweet Tamsen when a young man on a bicycle rode by us, stopped a
little ways ahead and turned and asked "Have you seen any news this
morning?" and I said "I read a little bit of the newspaper, why?" and he
told me what had happened. I remember saying "You are kidding me!"
and then almost immediately saying "That's stupid, I'm sorry, of course
you aren't kidding me" and he was nice and told me it was okay, he
understood. I asked him "What is going on in this world?" and he just
shook his head and said he sure didn't know. I somehow wanted to hug
him, but I didn't and I've always been sorry I didn't. I never saw him again.
What was scariest for me and my family was that my little brother had
told us he was going on a business trip to the WTC "in early September"
and for hours that day, I didn't know where he was. He finally called me
from San Francisco that afternoon, all of the high-rise office buildings
were being evacuated.

What was scariest for me and my family was that my little brother had
told us he was going on a business trip to the WTC "in early September"
and for hours that day, I didn't know where he was. He finally called me
from San Francisco that afternoon, all of the high-rise office buildings
were being evacuated.

And those dogs did a hell of a job. Big hugs to all of them. I watched a youtube vid today and and it was so moving. My children at the time were so young and confused that we had to turn the tv off. They were scared and so were we. But the tv hubby & I catched were of those awesome people who did the search for people who were trapped and hopefully rescued.

I hope they will too!
