Subject: thank you

I am a high school student in Gastonia, and I was absolutely torn apart watching everything that happened on September 11. We had televisions on in every room of our school, and we did nothing but watch it all day long. Even once I left school, I couldn't stop watching it. After school was out, I went directly to my mom's work (since my mom and grandmother both work there) and I just cried in my mom's arms. I can't imagine what it would feel like to have lost a parent in those buildings. I didn't want to think about losing my mom and not knowing that she knew I love her.
Like everyone else, I have to thank you for all that you are doing. It takes an incredible amount of courage and love for your country to leave your family (especially a four year-old daughter) and go to a place you can't even tell them where you are.
Thank you for defending our country so that we can sleep safely in our beds everynight. Thank you for caring so much that you want to see us all stay safe and free. Thank you for being willing to give your lives for ours. And thank you for loving your country and standing up to protect it from people like these.

I know that our country will survive this together, all because of the brave firefighters, police, and military personel we have in our midst. Thanks to all of you for being there in this great time of troubles in our history. I speak on behalf of my generation when I say this: Thank you for protecting our futures.
