Remembering September 11

     September 11 is a day that no American is every going to forget.  I remember everything that happened that day.  I remember my grade school closing early and my mom coming to pick me up and was crying in the car.  I remember sitting in front of the TV with my parents and watching people hang out the burning windows 100s of floors in the air.  I remember that day was complete chaos.
     After reading the article, I want to forgive Osama bin Laden because I feel like a bad person if I can't find it in my heart to forgive.  But I just cannot seem to forgive the unspeakable actions Osama bin Laden and the al Qaeda.  1,000's of innocent lives of people who were expecting a normal day at work were lost.  How can a man device such an evil plan on hijacking American airplanes and flying them straight into buildings.  I don't understand how a man can go to sleep at night and know that he caused many families to break apart, much destruction to a city, and send terror flying like wildfire through the United States.  I will not and cannot forgive a man who has such evil in his heart and is not okay for what he did.  Yes, I can move on and not dwell in the past and look at the future, but I cannot find in my heart forgiveness.
     September 11, 2001 was a terrible, terrible day and will always be remembered in history and was caused by an evil group of people who like spreading terror and disrupting peace.  There was no reason for 9/11 and Osama bin Laden had no reason to eliminate the lives of many innocent people.  I will not forgive Osama bin Laden and never be able to forgive a man who committed such a terrible, terrible crime.
