I was awoke by my mom screaming into the phone "We are under attack, turn on your tv". I couldn't see, i couldn't feel and i completely froze in a minute of complete terror and confusion.
Just as I turned the TV on and focused the second tower was struck. I have never been so afraid. I have never been so saddened by anything i've seen. I have never felt so bad for so many people and their familes. I was glued to the TV for days... I just remember crying and crying. I do recall something though that day that was surprising, sincere and out of character. I called information to get a phone number for a friend that had recently moved. The operator (those faceless people that don't really seem real) had asked if i would take a moment of silence with her for the people in New York....we did, it was sweet and meant a lot to me. I'll never forget that. IMO we were a nation that came together in shock, fear and grief....flags flew everywhere and we mourned.
