The bombing in Boston was a terrible event that happened in history. This event impacted my life in many ways. One way is it helped me realize life is to short and at any time something can happen. The second thing that happened to impact my life was knowing that the bomber one of them was close to my age and still in his teens. So in other words its made me watch and be careful around my surroundings. Never take anything for granite. and keep your head on the swivel.
