First was the assination of John Kennedy, then Martin and Bobby. Bobby was gunned down while I was in Vietnam wondering if I would be next. The next horror in my life didn't come until much later with the Challenger accident. I had watched and cheered Krista for all her hard work and the wonderful work she would do when she returned to the classroom. Then the Columbia in '03. None of these affected me like 9/11.the tentmakerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07593763466555013661noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15524211.post-1158328425399986962006-09-15T08:53:00.000-05:002006-09-15T08:53:00.000-05:00my friend's first born was born on 9/11 in the USA...my friend's first born was born on 9/11 in the USA - and it was my other friend's 40th ....<BR/><BR/>but Karen, this was none the less a beautiful post.

I remember, I was on the picket line( I hate unions by the way) As cars came through the line, the drivers gave us updates as to what had happened to the world trade centers in New York. All of us were in shock. Soon our union captian called off the strike and told us to all go home. When I got home I turned on the T.V. and cried in horror, shock and sadness as I watched. Even though I am a Canadian, I have relatives living in the States. In fact my cousins husband was due to be at the trade center on that dreadful morning at that specific time. He happened to be late for his meeting. Because he was late his life was spared. I just couln't believe what I saw. I was in shock as was the rest of the world. Still don't understand it.wandihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03349804011773049769noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15524211.post-1158055506691548752006-09-12T05:05:00.000-05:002006-09-12T05:05:00.000-05:00Was a sad day.
