I am an American. America is the light onto the nations. The US constitution is the light to America. 3000 Americans and innocent people from other nations who worked or visited the twin towers on September 11, 2001 perished at the had of Islamic terrorists. Today, America remembers. America rebuilt itself and created a memorial, the same America that has created a memorial in Honolulu to the murdered Americans at Pearl Harbor of December 7, 1941. America is always slow to react to attacks because it has no anger in its personality but at the end it always prevails and lead, albeit suffering unnecessary pain because it has no anger. Psychologically speaking, the terrorists that attacked America on 9/11 and 12/7 had too much misplaced anger while America that was attacked had too little of it. Rarely in human history do countries or individuals respond to a vicious attacks correctly and appropriately, why? Because educational systems in democracies throughout human history avoid teaching children how to respond to adversity. America is our best example of how to survive in a difficult world but America is not our best example how to respond and thrive in a difficult world. We leave that education to the future when we learn to express anger appropriately. God bless America!
