Welcome to my happily ever after...

memories
Where were you one year ago today? Man, time really flies by. One year ago at this very moment I was watching the 9/11 coverage on the news. I felt like I was watching a movie rather than real life events. I was horrified.
I haven't written about 9/11 before. I guess that I didn't want to stir up all those feelings again. I was on a business trip in Cleveland, OH. So far away from home.
I still can't comprehend the devastation...how many people lost their lives.
I have tried to erase memories. For example, I am guilty of trying to stay as busy as possible to try to block unpleasant memories so that they won't permeate my consciousness.
Stop Jonathan. Memories shape who are are.
Isn't it amazing that something like the memory of 9/11 can cut across lines such as geography, race, and class, and somehow hold us together both as individuals and as a community?
Amazing.
