Make your own Countdown Clocks
confession
#27
I was in first grade on 9/11/2001. I remember
that day more vividly than anyone might expect from a
going-on-six-year-old. For a while after, I thought that the
people in the plane were the only ones that died---the people in
the Pentagon and the WTCs got out
alive... When I learned about the people on the top floors who
had a choice of either jumping to their deaths or falling to
their deaths, I cried my eyes out. I can't imagine how
terrifying that would be---to know that no matter what,
you're going to die. I pray for those people the most.
They're the ones that people don't ever talk about,
because everyone's deathly afraid of being in their
situation.
