9/12

I'm so glad 9/11 is over. Its not that I'm insensitive to the tragedy of it all and how horrible it was. But at a certain point we need to grieve and move on.

I hate the way the whole country stops on 9/11 every year. We don't need 47 televised commerative ceremonies. We don't need to read off every single name of the people who died. We don't need every television special ever shown on instant repeat for the week leading up to 9/11.

I just feel like its been almost a decade. There is no reason for a woman who lost her husband to still be sobbing and unable to stand. You have to live your life and not let this day be a black cloud over it forever. Otherwise you may as well cast yourself as another life taken by the terrorists.
