Tears and raindrops mix at 9/11 ceremonies

Tears and Raindrops mix at 9/11 ceremonies

People joined in many activities on 9/11 including the reading of the names of the people who were lost in 9/11. President Obama placed a wreath at the Pentagon and helped paint a living room. Rain fell while people reading the names off. Two bright blue lights rose from lower Manhattan in memory of the two towers. There were many volunteers who stuffed baskets, distributed food for the needy, worked on a garden and picnic area, and more.

In my opinion, I think that it is great that many US citizens came together and honored those that had died and were injured in the events of 9/11. I still can't believe is has been eight years since the Twin Towers were attacked. It is also great that people came and did many charitable things like creating baskets for the soldiers, giving food to people who need it, and more. It really shows that we all care. I like the way how we all help each other out in a time of need. It seems that not many people do that anymore but on 9/11 we help out because we all can't imagine how some people are feeling, some greatful for their loved one to be alive and others sad because they lost a loved one in the falling of the Twin Towers.
