It was that time…

Things between Beth and I took a turn for the worst. We are no longer together.

Do we still remember?

Do we still remember that day?  That day… September 11, 2001.  I’m sure you remember where you were, what you were doing and who you were with.  Do we really remember the day though?

It used to be recommended to take that day off of work to grieve and remember.  The day, no matter where you were was silent.  There were signs on peoples cars to remind us that we will never forget.  There was a time when you could not turn on the television and not see the video of the planes crashing into the towers.

Tomorrow there will be broadcasts and stories of the tragic day to show us what we can not forget.  That is certain.  You will not see the video being aired of the crashes though.  At least not on too many networks.  Its as if they are too painful to watch so they hide them from us.  How do we remember the pain if we don’t feel it?  I think they should show video throughout the year to remind us of the terror that we felt.  To remind us of the loved ones we worried about and the ones that we lost.  To remind us of how important it is to never forget.

Who could ever forget the braveness shown on Flight 93?  Those people saved countless lives and gave theirs in order to do so.  That’s heroic.  That is the stuff legends are made of.  Yet, for some reason there is only a semi-permanent memorial for them which is endanger of being shut down.  How could that even be possible?  Seriously?

We all remember in our own ways I suppose.  Some choose to sit in silence and think about that day while others choose to talk about it.  It doesn’t matter how you choose to remember, as long as you do.

Thank you to every single person that is fighting for our Freedom and way of life wherever you may be.  Thank you to every single first responder that came to the rescue on that day.  We appreciate all of you!
