I don't know what to write today. Some random words come to mind.
Anger.
Radical.
Hatred.
I don't like those words.
Sadness.
Sorrow.
Grief.
Those words fit. They seem appropriate.
Hope.
Healing.
Peace.
Let me have my moment of idealism. It's a small thing really. It won't cost you anything. But it helps me find my perspective. I need that more than anything on the day after.
**hugs**
The day after, the feelings are still there. No matter how much time passes...
May we all find peace.
the day after, I am still angry, I cannot forget, we should not forget.
we all need that moment of idealism. have a good day Travis.
Hope
Healing
Peace
I'm with you Travis...not just for the moment of idealism...
Terra: Yes, I believe so.
Ann: Every day after, the feelings persist.
Mags: Duly noted.
V: I may never be able to write about this subject.
Songbird: No matter how many days pass, it's still right in front of my eyes.
Sarge: It isn't possible for me to forget.
Turn: Yes.
Matt: And to you Sir.
Sandee: Thanks, and you too.

What a wonderfully reflective post. No doubt we were all feeling these very things six years ago, too.
Today was an absolutely beautiful day here in New England - moderate temperatures, beautiful blue skies, no humidity. It was a day just like 9/11/2001 and whenever we get a day like that in September anymore I can't help but reflect on the tragedy that occurred on an identical day six years ago.
We refer to days like today as having a "9/11 sky". It's a sad reminder of a horribly sad event but as long as we have days like this, I know we'll never ever forget no matter if it's 60 years later rather than 6.
Have hope, my friend, that the world has learned from such a tragedy; seek healing in whatever way you find works; and may peace come to you through family, friends, and the love that surrounds you.
Kyra: Thanks. Just need to take some of the sharpness out of the images.
Julie: I'll take some of those.
Linda: I think the learning curve is still a little steep for some.
CWM: That's the word.
Hope. Healing. Peace.
Fits the situation.
