One of the things I always believe is that no matter how bad something is you can take something valuable out of it. The 1    I wasn't sure of that was on September 11th.

  I heard old people  2 about the attack on Pearl Harbour and Kennedy's being murdered and 3    greatly those events 4    them in their lives. For my 5    , the tragedy of September 11th can be 6    to that of Pearl Harbour. We will be talking about the terrible effect ' our country,and on our lives as the single human being,for years to come.

  It wasn't until a few weeks 8   September 11th that I began to see that perhaps something good did come from this tragedy. People seem 9    now,more understanding,more friendly. Little things that seemed to be much a bother before are no longer a 10    deal. Personally,I am more patient than I was. I realize life is too short and 11    to let myself get upset over unim?portant things. Life is also too short to carry complaints and 12    I've become more forgiving and understanding. I've also learnt that you can't take things for granted. You know how we always say " 13    you later. ”One thing I have realized from September 11th is that you can't ever say that for sure. 14    change in the blink of an eye. People go to 15    and don't come back. One minute they are living and the 16    minute they are not.

And,it doesn't  17   who you are because there is nothing you can do about it. We 18    know when our time will be over,so we all need to make the 19    of every minute we have.

  You try to learn from what happened. You cannot live by it. All you can do is just to 20    .
