I woke up to the tv screaming with beeps and alerts like a storm had approached. As I woke up I began to notice that it wasn't a storm, it was a building on fire in New York City. As I kept listening on, I began to hear that a plane had crashed into the building and it appears to have possibly been a terrorists attack. I started shaking and crying. I couldn't believe this was happening. I may have been hundreds of miles away, but the horror could be felt so strongly in that RV. I continually began to watch the TV, when I got a phone call on my cell. When I answered it was my work telling me that I do not need to come to work because they are closing due to the trauma in New York. I hung up and continued to watch the TV. As soon as I turned up the volume, ANOTHER PLANE IT. I began to shake more and more. I could only think that these people of New York City do not deserve this, nor anyone in the country or those planes, and why is this happening. I know now life is really short and dont take it for granted. May God Bless all the families and those who's lives were lost in that tragedy.
