...I lost a work associate in the Pentagon attack, only by the grace of God was it not me working on that contract that day.
...My best friend's daughter lost her fiancé. She worked in the Office Secretary of Defense, her fiancé was supposed to meet her for coffee around 9:30 but the attacks in New York made that impossible. They said they would meet for lunch instead. He remained at his desk and was killed as a result of the airplane impact.
...I have had to go to New York City at least 4 times since then, and I can't bring myself to visit the site where the twin towers stood. just seeing the pictures makes me so angry.
I called my brother that morning right after the Pentagon attack to tell him that me and my wife were okay... the last thing I said to him was "Life, as we have known it, is OVER. It will never be the same."
...my belief and faith in Jesus Christ has taught me to forgive even those that I don't want to, but I can NEVER forget.
