            <text>SEPT.11 IS A DAY I WILL NEVER FORGET. WHEN I HEARD  THE NEWS OF  WHAT  HAD  HAPPEN I FELT AS IF OUR NATION HAD BEEN BLOWN APART. I FELT SADNESS AND HATERED AT THE SAME TIME.SADNESS FOR ALL THAT WERE LOST TO THIS SENSELESS ACT OF TERRORISM AND HATERED FOR THE MAN THAT DID THIS.I COLUD NOT BELIEVE THAT THIS WAS HAPPENING. I WAS NUMB AND FELT SO LOST.I FELT AS IF EVERYTHING THAT OUR FORFATHERS HAD FOUGHT AND DIED FOR WAS BEING TAKING AWAY. THEN I LISTEN TO OUR PRESIDENT SPEAK AND HE TOLD US THAT WE MUST ALL UNITE AND BE AS ONE.THE ONE THING THAT CAN NO ONE CAN TAKE FROM US IS OUR  AMERICAN PRIDE. WE ARE ONE  AS  A NATION AND FREEDOM CAN NOT BE CAN NOT BE TAKE AWAY. AS THE  DAYS PASSED THE  NEW FOUND SPIRIT IN THIS OUR GREAT NATION BECAME STONGER. AND OUR COUNTRY BEAGN TO REBUILD.I SEEN PEOPLE NO MATTER WHAT RACE CREED OR COLOR UNITE AS ONE.THE TOWERS MAYBE NOT HERE ANY MORE BUT THE PRIDE AND LOVE OF THIS GREAT NATION WILL ALWAYS SURVIVE. A YEAR HAS PAST SINCE THIS TRADGERIC EVENT AND THE PAIN IS  EASIER BUT I WILL NEVER FOGET  9-11.THE MEMORY WILL  BE  FOREVER BURNED  IN  MY  MIND. TODAY  AS  A NATION  WE  ARE  STONGER. TO DAY  WE  ARE  PROUDER THAN EVER  TO  BE  AMERICANS. AND  NO  ONE  WILL  EVER TAKE  THAT  FROM  US. IN  CLOSING  I WOULD  LIKE  TO SAY  THAT ALL  THE  VICTIMS  OF  THIS  TRADGERIC  EVENT  WILL  ALWAYS  BE  IN  MY  PRAYERS. THEY WILL  NEVER  BE  FORGOTTEN. GOD BLESS THEM ONE AND ALL.AND  FINALLY  I WOULD  LIKE  TO  SAY  THAT  IAM PROUD  TO  BE  AMERICAN AND  TO  LIVE  IN  LAND  THATS  FREE. 
GOD BLESS AMERICA.</text>
