I felt that September 11, was a turning point for the community of New York. Many loved ones were lost, and yet people still had the strength to come out and help support the firefighters, and other individuals who risked their lives to help others during this tragedy. Days after the crash occurred, the sky was still gloomy and the streets were covered in pieces of the two buildings. It amazed me how much faith these people had in their country, even after this horrific event occurred. Many people gathered, hoping to find their lost loved ones, but many of them were never found. What really shocked me was the group of people in the center of Union Park who were drawing on the ground. Those words were absorbed into the ground and will be forever remembered, just as the World Trade Center will be remembered. When the crowd broke into an argument, people began to release their frustrations, and also comfort one another by listening to one another, and to reinsure themselves that this will not happen again. The people who died, and the people who risked their own lives by going into ground zero, will always be remembered. These brave individuals were extremely patriotic, and gave other Americans a since of pride even after all that they had already been through.
