| 9/11 By Jeff Christeinmen |
People trapped in the north tower of the World Trade Center stand in windows. Moments latter the tower collapsed.
6. How and why did it influence you?
It really impacted me because I couldn't believe that someone could have such heart to kill so many people. It made me imagine the desperation of the people trapped inside the tower felt and the sorrow of their families. After I saw this picture, I realized that there so much malice in the world and that I had to enjoy every single moment of my life because I don't know what might happen in the future.
