911DA Story: Story

I have thought a lot about that day and had time to discuss it with my family. I watched the 9/11 documentary on tv last night. I had watched it before, but seeing it again, I remembered the same feelings that I had on that day. I have seen this country come together and look past religions, races, and any other thing that would cause predjudice. I have also seen those same things enrage people. The difference now is that the rest of us seem to be more tolerant and loving towards others. In the documentary last night, someone said,and I am paraphrasing, that "we don't look at the horror that took place on that day, we look at all the heros that were born that day." I would like to think that this 5th anniversary is the perfect opportunity to remember those lost and those born. All of us were effected by this tragedy. All of us can now lean on each other and stregthen our country.
