At the time of the events of september 11th, I was attending school and did not find out about the tragic events untill the middle of the day. It is hard to think that at the same time that people we're plummeting to their innocent deaths, I was sitting in my class learning a trade and didn't even know that they we're screaming for someone to help them but I couldn't hear them. I was very sad for the people and stayed somewhat quiet through the day because i was sad and partially scared for my well being. There is a time in your life when you put away your own selfish pride and you sit down and just cry for all of the people that were never allowed to come home to their daughter or son or loved one. Just think about that husband and little child at home waiting for mommy to get off of work but mommy never came home. Imagine the pain that there was and how hard it was to explain that mommy was never going to come home and that she was going to a better place... All of this just because there was someone that had a grudge against someone else and many people died just for that one reason........ Hate, Stop the hate, that is not just a saying but it is now a plea, a plea that is heard all around the world.
