September 11, 2001

The tragedy of September 11th made American citizens shocked, hurt, and afraid of what would happen next.
It was sad because my teachers were crying and some kids were crying also because they were worried about the people that were in the building. I felt extremely bad because of all the people who died that day.
I also remember all the times they replayed the plane flying right into the side of the Twin Towers. Just watching the smoke come out of the building just wanted to make me cry.
When I came home I just looked so depressed, my mom knew why I was sad so she just told me it would be fine. Even though I didn?t lose anyone in the crashing of the Twin Towers I still felt terrible for people who lost loved ones in the terrible tragedy.
After all this has happen it has changed my life. I know how valuable life really is now. I hope later in life nothing like this ever happens again.
