Message: <blockquote data-quote="EverSoar" data-source="post: 362225" data-attributes="member: 576">I was sitting on the couch, watching the Australian news.  Then the first plane hit, my friend and I were shocked, but only presumed it was an accident.  The second plane hit, and we just stared at each other, utter disbelief.  Right then, I knew, this is the beginning of something I wish I would never have to live to see.  The Plane hitting the pentagon wasn't a real shock to me, I expected it.  I didn't expect, is of the plane coming down in shanksville.  And not knowing it at the time, but the people on the plane, fighting back, knowing what happened, and choosing to crash in a field, than kill hundreds of others.  Thats  courageous, brave and inspirational.  Thats human spirit.  The one thing the terrorists gave us.  The key to our human spirit.  I remembering crying at the sight, of the two towers falling, the pictures of the people in the tower, knowing they were going to never make it out, was too much......I watched all night, and all day, I had to.  It was all I could do, to honor those that had worked so tirelessly, and to the innocent victims, caught up in something much larger.I feel sorry for New York people, I personally could no handle, the constant reminder, of what happened.  The two towers missing, would be obvious, and it would hit me each time, i looked to where they once stood.  I don't' envy you.  We made an American flag here in Australia, on Bondi beach.  I was touched that America noticed this, and felt moved.  It's the least we can do to support you.All we can do is live</blockquote>
