World Youth Speak Out Together, we can make a difference.
Normally I never write with capitals, periods, or proper
writing. Just
quick abbreviations,to make the letters go faster. But, this letter
deserves dignification. It deserves the right ot be written properly,
because it has to do with something awful. Something that needs
desperate attention for sympathy, and thoughtfulness. September 11th
will leave a scar in our minds forever. It will always cross our minds,
no matter what. I hope that if anyone needs sympathy, or comforting,
turn to your friends, family, and/or cousins. I hope you all remember
those who lost a family member on the horrid day. Dear World. Hi! My name's Jorge and i'm a Spanish
boy. On september 11 th, I was on a Train on my wa'y back to my city.
The train took about 4 hours to arrive to my city. When my Father
phoned me and said me that three planes had crashed into Twin Towers
and Pentagon, I thinked "He's joking" But when I arrived
to my city and turned on the TV, I just couldn't believe what I was
watching on TV. I only remember that I felt very frightened and I
really didn't know how to feel or what to think. I think that everything that happened on September
11, 2001, was terrible, but I think America benefited from it, too.
Mostly everyone in America is more patriotic and loving since September
11. Also, a lot of people have gotten closer to God through the whole
thing. Dear archiecomics, I am a 15 yr old asian girl who's been living in a country where it has always been very peaceful and harmony and the incident that happened on sept 11 really did shocked me as I never thought that it would happen.When I saw the news on cnn while I was getting ready for an exam the next day, I thought that i was watching a movie stunt but then when I realize that what had happen wasn't fake at all. I would like to convey my deepest sympathy to those who were involved in the tragedy. You see I am living in a country where it has always been very peaceful where there are not much crimes commited,where you could actually walk around without worrying about your safety but then after the Sept 11th incident and the Bali bombing incident that happend a month ago, I soon realize that today there is no place that is 100% safe and that we should always be aware and attentive to what is going on around us, but we couldn't also afford to live in place where we would always worry about our safety and what is going to happen next right? So the idea of having a "WORLD TOGETHER CENTRE" is absolutely great! A place where all the youths who are going to be the next leaders and occupants of our lovely world could unite,discuss and give opinions on how to actually improve the ways of living of the people nowadays who seem to be more self-centered than before. This is the time we should realize that our world is not only about developing the economy , the education but also to develop the minds of the people to actually love one another and appreciate each other without caring the colour of their skins, their religion ,their status and their country because all of us came from one source and nothing is going to change that fact.We should always judge ourselves based our similarities and not through our differences. Even though I'm not really up-to-date on what is happening around the world but as a human being I too want me, my family,my friend and everyone who is living in this world to live in unity so that we can actually achieve what every human has dream of that is to live with a peaceful heart and not having to worry about anything. So I hope that the WTC could make a difference and I suggest that we should promote this organization to all the youths through schools all over the globe so that they are aware of such an organization and that they could also send in their ideas. Yati. I was so angry at the Osama Bin Laden for destroying our lifes practicly
! I got so mad I had a temper tantrum! These guys are bad, the ones
who destroyed the twin towers, and when the search people find Osama
Bin Laden, I'll scream with joy! Here's a poem I wrote:
It has been a whole year since the trade Centers were hit. although, I don't know how it would fell to have lost someone that fast i'm here to say to you that remember God loves you and he'll be by you 100% of the way. and he loves you very much. God BLESS THE USA. AMERICA TRAGEDY Hello, I am really sad about sept 11 because it will be so sad to think that what if my family was in there or me. I am so glad God blessed me with a good life a good home and wonderful parents and family. Without them i probally would not had such a good life, and I am glad that none of my friends got killed because i would just cry everyday. This message is to everyone who has lost someone in 9/11 or anything else. Just remember family and friends are hard to come by, so say you love them everyday or if they die you will regret it. I know that is the best of all countries.it shocked
me when the attacks on america happened.new york was best i ever liked.So
our prayers will be in touch for those who died. The morning the planes crashed, my dad yelled. I went to school not
knowing what the World Trade Center was. I came back from school,
knowing what the World Trade Center was. In the school library, they
had the t.v. on, showing the planes crashing in the World Trade Center.
I didn't care about the incident as much when it happened. I cried
a year later, and couldn't stop.
Hey, This morning i watched "63 reasons to hope-the babies of 9/11"
just felt like bursting into tears! When my family and i sat down to watch all the memorial programs
last month, I had to go to my room and cry. Hi, When the September 11,2001 had happened I was in my
math class or at home at 6:00 am. My mom heard it on the radio and
told me me that a highjector had crashed into the twin towers, me
and my sister didn't understand. Later my math teacher told us, and
then the announments came on and told us and to keep silence for a
minute for the lost ones. I said a prayer and my classsmates were
sad and quiet. We had watched the news the whole day about the tragety
my heart was broken. All those people going to work didn't know it
and losing their love ones. Some one told us that the highjectors
were coming to Phoenix Az i was scared and wanted to be close to my
family. I learned to be different and to change the world, see people
if we can be caring and loving and help others we can make a difference
and be united we can make a different world. God Bless America and
all of you and you can join a join of hands of the world. Hello to everyone, Dear Archie's Comics, Hello everyone, With best wishes for the future, Hi there, On Sept11, i was at school and suddenly our principal told us to stop for lectures because she is from the states. Our lectures were stopped in confusion. I went back home and heard the news which appeared to be really bad. I'm so sorry for the lost souls .My ex boyfriend also died which is very painful. I send all my condolences to families of the lost souls. May the good lord give you all the fortitude to bear the loss Amen. TEMI - ENGLAND UK On September 11th I was in my class room in the fifth grade and all of a sudden my teacher left the room and came back a short time later crying and told us what happened, at first I didn't undestand. She turned on the TV and we watched the story as it happened and when I saw all the people crying and coming out of the building half burnt I just had to lay my head down and cry. for the victims of the 9-11 tragedy I am so sorry and know that none of us will ever know what and how you feel. I am proud of are country and know that we will make it through this time. Stay strong America! Samantha G. of sequin,TX Deep down inside we can't kill Orianne V. age:12 On 9/11 I was in bed went I heard this noise. So I got up to see
what was the from Stephanie Ann Hi. My name is Stevie. I think that what happened a year ago on that tragic day was a wake-up call for America. Ever since what happened to the World Trade Center made us realize that our country is stronger. One reason that I say this is because all the people who lost their lives made the families of the victoms stronger. God Bless Everyone. Stevie 11 When I heard about the attack I felt so sorry for misfortune families
whose love ones were killed or went missing. I know the attack not
only concerns America, but had affected the whole world. Let's all
be friends and let Mother Earth be the niceset place in space. May
Godness of Mercy bless America. You see, I live in Bc, so I didn't lose a loved one in the attacks.
But I feel for everyone that has suffered. We, everyone here from
Bc, feel your pain. I feel for all of the little ones, who will never
see their daddy, or mommy ever again. I feel terrible, and I cried
in my sleep for 2 weeks, because I felt so sad. So if everyone can
contribute, and make this world a better place, no one will be left
behind. I feel that other kids are hurt by these things. Well I am too.When
I heard what had happend I thought is the world going to end? Are
we all going to become slaves? My mom was so worried that she wouldn't
even let us go Trick Or Treating for Halloween. So we just sat there
watching T.V.. That wasn't fun at all. My mom didn't even want to
hand out candy but she didn't want people knocking on our door so
I did it. That was about the only fun we had on Halloween. Crystal, age12 Dear archiecomics, Dear Archie Comics, Miami Lakes, Florida Age: 11 It has been a year since the September 11 accident has happened.
I
still remember the day. I was in 4th grade and every one was being
dismissed
early. I walked
out with my backpack loaded and asked, "why is every one leaving".
My mom
told me that something bad happened on T.V. When we got home my sister
was
over with her husband and few tears were falling down her face as
she
watched the news reporters show the re-runs over and over. When I
saw the
towers fall i asked, "what happened? Who did that?' I was stunned
when my
mom told me that Afagan. took our planes and crashed them into the
two
towers I was so scared I thought they were going to come to Texas
and it
gave me many nightmares. I was very scared and worried. Hi, Archie, I’m Hiran from Sri Lanka. I feel so sad for what happened on September 11th. When it happened I was listening to the radio and the dj said that a plane has crashed in to the WTC, I was so surprised that I didn’t believe it, but I ran to turn the TV on, in the news I saw smoke coming from one of the towers, as I watched I saw the second plane come and hit the next tower! For a minute or two I couldn’t say any thing but stare at the TV. My mother was speechless too! I have an aunt in the states living in the New York. We were glad to know that she was OK! Following the days after the attack, when the stories of the tragedy came through, I was so ashamed with you know who. I feel so sad for the people who lost their loved ones on that dreadful day, “I think the guy must be mad or some thing, to do a thing like that!” If he thinks it was the greatest plan, I’d like to ask him what he would do, if he was in the WTC when it happened. But I think we can’t fix the past, all we can do is to remember the ones who died, and the heroes who risked their lives to help others and lost their own lives in action, and hope for a brighter future! God bless America!!!!
From a guy who loves America and hates dear Bin! It is a pity that we can see the similarities we all have. The fact
that a black man is different from a white man does not mean that
they have diff bodies only diff. skin colour, and the same goes for
women. If not that some people only think of ways they can devise
evil and not of ways they can make the world better. These world i
think will be a better place to live in. We are all one in the eyes
of the Lord and when we realize that there would be love amongst us. Hello everyone! Natalie,15 Hi, I'm from Singapore, and I feel very lucky that something like
that did not happen to me. Thank god. Living in singapore, i have
muslim friends, and i know that they too do no agree to such cruel
things. So let's join our hands together and pray for world peace
and for each other. Hi my name is Estelle. I live in chicago IL. On September
11 I was at school we were in our class when our teacher came in crying.
She told us what had happend. At first I could not understand what
had happend. Then when we walked out of class I saw some teachers
crying then I knew somthing terrible had happend. For a couple of
days my heart hurt I felt NY's pain. The next day no one really talked.
After a year I still cry listing to all the talk. And I learn that
it's all about religon. And I still think what is this world comming
to?
When I heard what happened all I could think was "Why do they
hate us?".
On that day in September, I'll always remember hearing the news.
