Silence

We all have our story. We all know exactly where we were and how we felt today ten years ago. That day still stings me. I didn't lose anyone but I think we all lost a little piece of our souls knowing it could have been us. It could have been me. So it's a private day to me and I don't watch the replays, the news, the commentaries or the interviews. Some may say it's selfish but today I am in Austin having bar b que with my family, catching up with friends and enjoying time with The Girl. We have to keep moving forward. Keep living. Keep appreciating every minute of freedom we have.

I love this Country in a fierce maniac kind of way. This is why , if you want to know, click to this link and read on.

  2. This is the exact same way that I feel. I can't watch the replays, I can't read the constant copied/pasted facebook status messages, and for many reasons, I can't continue to live in the past. I want to look forward - not saying that this day doesn't affect me, because it does. I just want to look ahead.

  3. I can't watch the replays commentaries or interviews either. They leave me a quivering mass of sobbing mess. Wish I was in Austin with you!

  4. I literally forgot 9/11 until this post. Lost two people in Tower 1 and am sick of hearing about it.
