I know my story is nothing special compared to those who lived in New York City. I just want to let everyone know how it touched my heart and my town. It made me realize how this country can come together. I have never once seen an entire school stand up and say the pledge like our school did the day of September 11. It made everyones little problems go away. We became one country and we wernt scared to show our pride anymore. The trend was to show your colors of Red White and Blue. People began to put flags up and show there support. You could really see barriers in our town began to break down. People began to walk by and wave to one another. You saw someone else w/ a flag on there car it gave you this warm feeling inside. I know its sad for something like this to happen for us to learn. This event made me wanna get invovled in the community it made me wanna get out there in help. So in the end of all this I want to thank all the heros of Sept. 11. Thanks for all yoru help and showing your love for your country.
