September 11 - On Everyone's Mind Forever!

September 11, 2001 is a day that we relive like Bill Murray in Groundhog Day. Maybe not to the full extent, but on the anniversary of that day the media shows the footage over and over again. As we view this footage, we begin to retrace our footsteps of the morning. Where were we? What were we doing? What were we wearing? Who did we talk to that day? Any regrets? Did we tell our loved ones how much they mean to us?
A day such as that brings so much to the surface. It isn't only a tragic day, but it became an American Feeling Day. A day in which Americans feel and express themselves again...and sympathize with each other.
We get fed off of others expressions and feelings. We begin to feel better and more alive again. The more we open up and share, the more we become human again.
It's an emotional explosive day. As we view those planes careening into the side of the buildings in NYC or in DC, we begin to realize there is much more to life than our restricted daily routines.
We question who we are, and what our purpose is as well.
We begin to WANT to live our lives without regret. We want to love with a greater capacity than we ever could imagine. As we feel strong feelings of love and peace, we also feel strong feelings of hatred to those who committed the acts of violence too.
September 11 is the day of powerful emotions and fills us with much passion - and even inspiration.
Whether it is an official day of remembrance or not, we all reflect upon ourselves, others, and our purpose in this world.
September 11, 2001 - National Day of Reflection and Feeling...whether it is official or not, it has been since that original day.
Bin Laden is a miserable and selfish man, but he gave us insight and restored our human compassion again. There is always good in something...no matter how vile.
