I was half asleep, rubbing my eyes and yawning, in front of the TV. I was waiting for my wife to finish showering when I saw the planes slam into the WTC. Then the Penatgon was struck. I have 3 small children ages, 3, 2, and 1. And I remember this overwhelming feeling of dread and grief. And of sorrow because of the people who were dying. And because I didn't want my children to fight a war.
