I was on my way to a pep rally and decided to take my backpack to class early. Thats when it hit me. My geometry teacher told me to turn the the television on because someone had crashed into the Twin Towers. I din't really care at the time because I didn't know what they were. Now that I know I feel bad that I didn't care at the time but there is nothing I can do to change that. The reason it bothered me so bad is because, when iI found out how it affected everyone in New York and their family members, I realized that I am blessed and that one of those victims of that tragedy could have been one of my aunts or uncles. That day I really went on about my buisness and it didn't really bother me too much. My parents and I didn't really have too much of a conversation on this. I don't think that every should have started asking God to bless America and America was not looking to god when everything was going good. To sum it all up, the attack didn't bother me at first but it does bother me now.
