I was not there witnessing this terrible tragedy, live in New York, because I live in Texas but I watched it on tv and had the worst feelings of helplessness towards this evil and injust attack of so many innocent people, I think that it is something that we can still not understand.

Yes, my life changed so much after this day because I now believe more in this country, and am very proud of all those americans that chose to give their lives to help others and that only shows those who wanted to destroy us that instead of hurting us they only made us stronger, because in good and in bad together we stand, and that is something that no terrorist can take away from us.

I think what should be remembered more than anything is the people that died that day, and all those heroes that gave their lives for others and how America has stood up and never put their guard down.

I always had a special place for the US flag but I feel that this terrible tragedy has given me more motivation to stand up for our rights, I became a U.S. citizen after living here all my life, to show that I feel for this country even though I was not born here, this is how I realized that I really feel that I belong, because I am angry and hurt at what they did to our country.
