Can anyone reflect on what they was doing on that Day ?

I was sleep just came in at 6am in the morning and i went to sleep mind you at the time i was still living in Queens NY. Well i was sleep and my wife woke me up and said "Honey look the world trade is on fire they say a small plane hit it" I looked at the TV and said "i am sleepy they will put it out" I laid down and she hit me again and said "look this shit don't look right" So now she got me up, i got dressed and went on the roof of my apartment building where you can see the whole NYC Sky line and you can see the world trade center from there. Well i was on the roof with a few buddies and we are talking about what the pilot was thinking and i saw the second plane coming in and i said"what the fuck that dude is flying real low" and as i was pointing and saying "what the fuck is he doing" he turned and hit Tower 2. I then ran down stairs and and me and my wife took both car's and went to the schools to get all my children out of school because after that it was very clear what was going on. I swear i have seen some crazy things in my life but i will never forget 9-11. Where i lived in flushing we was in the landing path for the Airport and for a week or more NYC was dead silence. Not too many car's on the street i mean like a ghost town, But what i love during that time the way we all came together and it didn't matter what race you was we was 1. I know that some here don't like Obama but for 1 day just 1 day can we be 1 again.
