I've been depressed and sad. I know things won't be the same for a very long time. The world is at war. Anger, hatred, fear, and shock fill the air.

Every cloud has it's silver lining. The world will be built on a new foundation of understanding and love, someday soon.

I live on the west coast and was just waking up,sleepily,slowly, when I saw smoke and fire coming from one of the towers. The television had been on all night. I couldn't quite make out what was happening. Was it a movie? An accident? What was happening? I tried to open my eyes and ears wider, trying to discern the moment. Immediately I saw the second plane coming toward the second tower,and,like a huge blast to the stomach, crash almost completely through it. Shocked. I knew we, these United States, were under attack. How many more planes would hit? Voices on the tv said another plane was heading toward the pentagon.
