38、rible could have happened.It wasnt until a few weeks after September 11 that I began to see that perhaps some good did come from this tragedy (悲剧). People seem different now, more understanding, more tolerant(宽容的). Little things that seemed to be such a trouble before are no longer big things. Perso

39、nally, I am more tolerant than I was. I realize life is too short, and too precious(珍贵的), to let myself get worried over small things. Ive learned also that you cant take things for granted. Things change in the blink of an eye. People go to work and dont come back. One moment theyre living and the
