An American Trajedy
On Tuesday September 11, 2001, the
United States of America, became, yet again, a victim to an apparent
terorist attack. The World Trade Center Towers were hit, by not one,
but TWO airplanes as they were starting thier busy day. The nation was
again struck by another plane diving into the Pentagon, and was spared a
much higher death toll as the fourth hijacked plane never made it to
wherever it's intended target was.
The death toll as of this time has not been
tallied, but suffice it to say that even one life lost to this kind of
attack is one too many. When this is all said and done, I bet there will
be more than one of us who will have been personally affected by the trajedy.
Let us never forget what happened on this
day, and always remember how precious our time with family and friends is
and how quickly and randomly it can be taken away from us. Finally, let's
not forget to say a prayer for all those civilians, airline workers,
and emergency services personnel whose only sin that day was reporting for work.
Remember, too, the loved ones left behind and pray they have the
strength to deal with this trajedy.
