back on topic.

I have never been a very patriotic person, nor do I consider myself to be one now. Thinking back to that day I am pretty disappointed with the way I reacted when I first heard the news and over the course of 10 years I have strongly been against the war.

Turning on the news last night when I arrived at work and listening to President Obama's speech I felt good, not because we had just killed a man who had wronged us but that everyone who had lost someone or something in the attack may feel some relief after 10 years.

Today I feel more American than I ever have in my life, I am still not a very patriotic person nor do I support the war. I feel a certain sense of connection with every person I meet, that we share a common emotion a sense of righteous accomplishment.

The last few years in this country have been difficult for many people. The economy going down with the price of everything going up a lot of people have been down in a slump, and though it doesn't seem great to rally around the death of a man but finally there is something to bring us together and make us remember what it means to be an American.

That's what I'm happy about,
