September 11th

A detailed Summary of September 11th


As we all know, on the fateful day of September 11th, 2001, the World Trade Center, also known as the Twin Towers were struck by two planes flown by terrorists, and ultimately destroyed. It is a day that no American will ever forget.

In my opinion, it is absolutely impossible to forget that awful event because the media constantly broadcasts the towers being hit and crumbling to the ground.

In many cases, family members could not even give a proper burial, for the body hadn't been recovered. Reminders of this, in my opinion, could only make their mental health deteriorate.

September 11th will remain a day that will always be in people's minds and hearts, but hopefully in time, and with media coverage fading out, Americans will finally be able to heal and mourn, but then eventually overcome, in their own time. May our country continue to grow only stronger, and may all Americans learn to value each other and life even more than before. Unfortunately, sometimes, it takes such a terrible incident like the events on September 11th for
