piplover: (sorrow)
It's kind of hard to believe that 9 years ago the world changed.  So many people killed, on such a horrific day.  I hope we never forget what happened, but I also hope that it doesn't accomplish what the bastards set out to do:  tear us apart.  

We rose up strongly after the attacks.  There was unity in our grief.  Now it seems to be sliding towards hatred, and that's one of the biggest defeats we might suffer.  It shouldn't matter what religion you are, or what color your skin.  We all lost something that day. 

I hope I never forget.  But today I'm going to go to work, and help people out.  I'm going to be happy as I can, and try to make someone else's day better.  I'm going to remember those who lost their lives that day, and I'm going to honor them by trying to be the best person I can be.  I hope we all can.  

Let us never forget, but let us also never let it color the memories with anything other than honor.
