September 11, 2001
It is a day in which I do not wish to relive. Yet I can't seem to get away from it. I think I've done a good job in the past. I can't even remember last year or the year before that or the year before that. It's like there hasn't been a September 11th in my life for 5 years. This one for some reason hits big. I can feel the somberness in the air. It weighs me down. I try to move, try to get away, but everywhere I turn, there it is. It can be suffocating if you let it. Maybe if I just face that day, that fear, it will subside. I don't know if I can do that yet. That makes me feel guilty. I wasn't in New York. I didn't know anyone on those plans. But I feel their grief.
My wish for this day is that you hug your loved ones. That you remember those who gave their lives and who still do. May we all someday find peace.
I love you all.
