I opened my eyes and ears immediately after the first plane crash. I saw the fiery tower on a broadcasting news station on my television. I heard the frightened and shocked voices explaining how the first plane smacked into the tower on my radio. I used the television and the radio through the whole ordeal as the 9/11 tragedies made world history.

My life hasn?t changed because of the 9/11 tragedies, but I was clearly affected by the results. Currently I work with charities and volunteer services. Before the 9/11 tragedy my time and contribution wasn?t so necessary along with other charity givers and volunteer workers. After the 9/11 tragedy funds and helpers were in constant demand throughout America.

Everything that occurred during the 9/11 tragedies should be remembered. The unity and the strength of the people after the 9/11 tragedies should be remembered the most.

I didn?t fly a flag after September 11, 2002, not because I?m not patriotic only because I don?t think just the American flag should have been in the air. Still my feelings for the American flags are still the same I?m proud and would be happy to raise the American flag for I was born in America. The Indian and the Puerto Rican flags would also be risen by my hands for my ethnic background is based on both ethnic groups.
