"Loss and Hope'

The writer of this piece brought up a point that I had never thought about. After 9/11 the people of America really did come together with an overwhelming desire to do something about it. Using this point gives the piece a completely different light than our standard depressing recounts of 9/11. It's like, we reacted to this tragedy in a way that I don't think anyone thought we would, and 10 years later, we still remember but we've moved on. Sorry that this post is so short, I just really really liked that writing tactic and wanted to make sure I got it out there. :)
