I witnessed history on September 11th wen i was in 8th grade at Glen Este Middle School. I was in Mr. Simcox's class and we heard something terrible had happened but they wouldnt tell us what it was. Then when we were watching channel 1 they did a viedo replay and we saw the two planes crash into the World Trade Centers. At that point in time it was like the world stopped and no one knew what to say or do because no one in my class talked for at least 30 minutes. I relised that my life would never be the same and that i should be glad that i am alive and not regret anything and always tell my family how much they mean to me because you never know when something might happen to them or to me.

My life has been changed after September 11, 2001 because it puts a whole new look on not only my life but the people around me too. Everyday I sit and wonder what it must be like having to grow up and never knowing your mother or father. I can't imagine what my life would be like with out my mom because we have been through a lot together she is my best friend. It put a whole new look on my life and it has taught me to respect people even if they dont respect me because that makes me a better person. It has also taught me to smile and say hi to people who look like they are having a bad day because for those few minutes i hve changed someones whole day.

I think all the Firemen, and everyone who was lost should be remembered and always remain in ur heart. After September 11th I think Firemen and women are more respected expectually the ones who lost their life trying to save another.

Yes, My family hung an American flag after September 11th. My feelings for the Americanm flag have not changed they have just gotten stronger. As of September 11th I respect the flag more than i did before because I know how much it means to me now.
