Insight Into the Human Mind - "One Day, Now Broken Into Two" (Reply)

I personally thing this essay is really well written essay. She gave the audiance some good points, but it was not really convincing to some people. I am one of the person who was not directly affected by the 9/11 event. Well I don't want to talk about how it affected me on here, but it was just internationally huge event to me which affected me not emotionally(It was some kind of financial).
The 9/11 event was definitely a huge thing to lots of people. Especially people who lost their close people. I felt so bad when my english teacher had to leave Korea to go see her boyfriend. Some people definitely think 9/11 as sad day which people never forget. But some other people just forget about it and enjoying their own life. Today should be the day not to celebrate, to have silent time to think about people who died from it.
We now have some kind of good security system. But I still do think it is not safe now. I am so okay with metal detector, shoes off thing, and also the whole body scanning thing. But I am not sure this can stop terror thing. I do think there can be another thing like 9/11 later. There is not warrenty or some kind of thing like it to make sure it is not going to happen. As we are all human(I do hope everyone is..), we can make mistakes and can think more complicated than others. All we can do is belive government and do what we have to do when see suspicious people. And school has one of the weakest security. School need to be more secured than before. Even though dress code and other things can regulate people's appearance, it can not prevent from doing bad things.
I am kind of negative person. I do not see positively so I can prepare for the bad things which can happen to me. I do see 9/11 as a good lesson. But I dont see that there aren't much stuff which we can do more to stop it from now.

- I am glad to discuss about it more. But my english ability is kind of not good enought to express all of my opinion here. And please comment on this if I missed any. I need some sharp feedbacks.

  1. I agree with what your saying Jung because we can't say that nothing is going to happen because it can at any moment. You always have to expect the unexpected. I also felt bad when people lost their family members or friends. It must be awful. I disagree with you being a negative person though. But, I do agree with being able to prepare for the bad things. We do also need to have better security at school. Not to the point where it is ridiculous.
