Local firefighters climb to remember the ones we lost on Sept. 11
By: Abigail Curtis

This article that I read really warmed up my heart because firefighters from all over Colorado and even Cheyenne, Wyoming came to the quest building today to honor the ones we lost. I think that it is very nice that the firefighters did that because those brave people lost their life’s to try and save lots of other people. Now that I am more mature I understand why we take time on this day to remember all the life’s that had died and all the people that risked their life’s to save others. I think that this article kind of connects to what we do in class because like the firefighters that risked their life’s to try and save others so they can go on and meet there life goals. All of our teachers teach us so that way we are prepared for the future, and so we could meet our goals in life. This article really had me think about a lot of stuff like how the teachers do a lot for us and that we just don’t care or we just don’t know that they are doing it. Also what this article had me think about is that we all have each others backs even though we don’t know each other. After I read this article and thought about the whole topic I just realized now why this country is called the United States, its called the United States because we are all united as one. Just because this stuff did not happen in our hometown or state we still try to help each others through all of this cause like I said we are united as one. I’m glade that people write articles because they tell you a lot about what is happening in this world.
