9/11 remembered

it's hard to believe that 5 years have passed since that terrible morning in september 2001. at the time - i was living in washington, dc at the time and watched as the plane hit the pentagon. i just remember thinking 'what the hell is happening in the world today?' i think the entire world asked the same thing.

it's strange to think that we now speak of times as being pre or post 9/11. that single day did change our lives - the world's lives. it became a new era in our history. i vowed that i would never let the events on that day effect me - yet - as i sit here at my desk and i hear the names being said over the television - the names of all of the people who lost their lives on that morning - it makes me so very emotional.

can the world mend itself?
