On Sept. 11 our United States suffered a tragedy, the scope of which we have never seen before. Why were these people targeted? Because they were men or women? Because they were young or old? Rich or poor? Because of the color of their skin? Because of their religion? Or who they love?
These people were sacrificed because they shared one common bond – they were Americans. I pray that these lives are not lost in vain. If we as Americans can unite, put our differences behind us, be one nation, then perhaps this senseless act of terror will have a greater value. We live in the greatest country in the world. It is time to come together as one.
