911DA Story: Story

I am going to tell you about how the events of September 11, 2001 made me feel. They made me feel scared and insecure. When I had heard about part of what happened, I was so scared. Then I prayed. I did feel better. However, I was still scared because my brother was 18 and I didn?t want him to get drafted. I wanted him to stay right here in Barberton.
I guess I was saddened by the attack, but other than fear I cannot think of any feelings. Maybe I did feel angry though, because people wanted to hurt us. Then later I felt protected and safe because we were dealing with the attacks, and fighting back.
