The Twin Tow ers had smoke drifting o ff in£®. the sky. To hie it Was like some-1 thing ypu only seen in the mov ies. I almost didn’t believe it. I watched further and saw the Pentagon was. attacked. It was hard to believe it was hap pening in our country. I cam e to w ork and go t iphone calls from friends about; it. By then it had sunk in that it was actually real. Since then I have remémbered the people who lost their lives in thisfer- rorist act. I feel for them and their families. ^ U ntil recently I couldn’tfcven imagine losing family It is some^ thing you never forget once' ie happens to you, § • ' 'So,*noW I appreciate family who are there for; me in times o f grief.
