Heys Whyvillians.
I'm here to write about Shalee's last article. It was about September 11th and how she thought no one talked about it enough. Well, here's my opinion.
I think that we should all keep going in our lives. We all know it happened, and I hope no one is denying it. We will never forget this tragic day in our lives and we are going to tell our children about it. I think that we heard about September 11th enough through the time it happened and recently. We don't have to have moments of silence nationwide every day.
We have to get on with our lives! That's what the terrorists don't want. They want us in mourning every day till they can attack again!
And I personally, wouldn't be able to handle hearing about it every day. I wasn't that emotional on September 11th last year. Maybe I was in shock or something. But this year, I got really emotional. Especially after seeing those people jumping out of the buildings. I was screaming and crying. I couldn't handle that. Yeah, sure, I'm in 8th grade, but I couldn't stand seeing those people jump 90 some floors to their death.
So I'm glad we don't talk about it every day, because if we did, I would be sad every day, and so would a lot of our nation. I hope some of you agree with me. And Shalee, I hope you are looking at this article with a different view and considering my points.
Byes,
