9/11 Journaling

9/11 Journaling
2014-09-11 09:34:10, Thursday

Looking back, reflecting, analyzing, thinking, remembering can be painful at times. Today is no different. Some days, though, are harder than others to remember. 

A day, like today and 9/11, it isn't hard to remember because it's so foggy not much is remembered. Rather, it's hard to think.about because the memories have been etched into the synapses and core of our brains and down deep in the candle of our hearts. We could never forget the events which unfolded on this day thirteen and two years ago.

It's hard to remember because it's so vivid and painful. 

Lives were shattered that day.

Lives changed.

The world as we knew it no longer existed, and it still doesn't, and never will again. 

Now to borrow a phrase from the Columbine High School tragedy...

We ARE 9/11.

WE are 9/11.

We are 9/11. 

A day, whichever year, from 2001 or 2012, will never be forgotten.

Why will it never be forgotten? Because there are some who refuse to ever forget and think of these events daily. It isn't just on 9/11. 

 9/11...

We hear you.

We choose to remember so you didn't die in vain. 

You are remembered.
