	Story Behind the Song 9/11/01 8:30 am, I was on my way to work in my car and like always, I tuned into La Mega 97.9 fm. I was listening to their morning jokes, when there was silence for few seconds. One of the Dj's asked, What is that? Is that a hole on the side of the twin towers I see? Another D.j. said, "Yes it is! and there is a big hole!! I thought they were joking, since that is what they do all the time. I said to myself, let me listen to another station to see if it is true. All the radio stations were reporting the same news that an airplane had just hit the towers. For some reason, I got excited and started yelling, from my car to any person I saw in the street, "An airplane just crash against the twin towers!", some did not believe me. Some asked me questions, so I turned the car radio out loud so they could hear it for themselves. I said to myself, "by those people hearing the news from me I knew they were retell the story by mentioning me. Even though they didn't know who was the guy shouting "An airplane just hit the towers, an airplane just hit the towers, I knew it was going to be a story that will be told for ages and I wanted to be part of it in some people's stories. I had a big feeling that it was a Terrorists Act!, but the big shocker was still few minutes away. I walked into my job and said,"You heard what happened to the twin towers? Some one replied, "Yeah, I heard, it was an accident" and I said, " I donk think so, remember what happen in 1995? The explosion! As we were looking at the T.V., we saw what appeared to be a replay of the accident. But we were saying, "wait a minute, both towers are smoking now! Then we realized that another airplane just hit the second tower. At that moment, I really felt scared. I thought we were going to be attack from everywhere and the third world war had begun. I ran out and got on my car and went to my house to get my wife and pick up my kids from school. I was afraid because my 16 year-old daughther "Penelope" attended high school in Manhattan Science at 96th Street, not so close but close enough!! The radio had reported that all bridges from and into the city of Manhattan were closed for traffic by police. Then we heard the news about a third plane had hit the pentagon and another one on the way to Washington D.C. My heart was pounding like thunder!! We continued to pick up our three kids from their Bronx Junior high school and needed to pick up one more. We didn't know how we were going to get to Manhattan if the bridges were closed. By car it's an 1/2 hour drive and walking I would take about 2 to 3 hours. Well, what I did was, I drove to 138th Street and Major Deegan and parked my car just before the entrance of the 138th bridge. I crossed over, walking , with my wife and three kids. It took us about two hours to get there. We found Penelope outside sitting in the school's stairs crying and scared. We saw fighting war jets flying over the city for the first time in our lives of 30 years. We and thousands of people were walking towards the Bronx, Queens and some even went walking to Brooklyn. While I was going back home, walking, people of all kind of gender and nationalities were talking to each other like if they knew each other from a long time ago. I said to my wife, "This is what it takes for us to get along HUH"? But for some reason I felt something that I had never felt before. I felt I was an American, eventhough, I was born in Dominican Republic. When I looked at the American flag, I knew that day, I was an American and that this country was my country. I was ready to fight and die if need be for this country (USA). As I walked with everyone, I started humming a melody. Then I began singing "Que Linda es America" with the melody. I sang it and sang it and then I thought to myself, let me see if I could write a song with this melody it sounds beautiful! So, I started writing and writing in my mind and this is what I came up with and the rest is history.
