My High School journal entry from that day as shown on my previous ‘Yearbooks Post‘…
Tue 9-11-01
*When I heard I was in 6th period in seminary, about 9:30 – 10: 00 AM. Possible WW3!!!
AMERICA IS UNDER ATTACK!
Today the trade building (used to be the tallest buildings in America) got ran into by 2 high jacked planes, in New York. One other plane ran into the Pentagon & another crashed into Pennsylvania. All planes were high jacked. I am still shocked & stunned reality hasn’t hit me yet. The possibility of a WW3 scares me. The fact that there are still such evils in the world that these terrorists could take passenger planes & kill everyone on board.
The storys of the relatives of killed people that have been on the radio & TV all day of the calls they received from loved ones on board the plane before they died, aches my heart. Even though I didn’t lose anyone or didn’t know any of the people effected it still hurts me to know others are hurting & I can’t help or comfort because I’m too far away… It’s affected the whole nation & everyone is changed. Their perspective of life has changed more humbly, I know mine has. Today for the 1st time in awhile I think people completely turned off their obsessions of media & whats going on in hollywood & all that crap & have hit reality in the face of real life & concern of those in suffering. Forget all the riches & high society in the world & focus on the dieing & suffering. I don’t know, all I can say, this event today has shaken me up & has changed my life! Something I will NEVER forget!
