9/11 – Entry from my diary…

September 11, 2009

I found this entry in my diary… can’t believe its been 8 years – it’s still just as shocking.

9/9/02

A year ago

A year ago today the world was untouched, immune and innocent to terrorism

A year ago tomorrow… if only we had known

A year ago the next day, the world as we knew it changed forever…

I remember wondering if the wind that chilled my face where the tears had been was the same wind that had blown through New York and I wondered if when it returned there, my tears of sorrow would find solace with the millions of other grievers. I cried not just for the lives taken that day, but for everything that was lost in those few short hours.

Take our innocence and turn it to fear.

A life lived in fear is a life half lived.
