Whoever has his enemy at his mercy &
does not destroy him is his own enemy

I’m sure I’m alone here, but I tend to find pictures of the buildings exploding unnecessary as a “reminder.” I don’t need reminding, but I understand the discussion on the anniversary. However, when I see these pictures of the buildings exploding, or the planes flying in, all I ever think about are the family members of the people who were killed at that exact moment in time, forever captured in picture. I sometimes wonder if we ever think of them when we throw these pictures up every year on the anniversary as a “reminder.” I remember that day every day, and I think of those people all of the time. I don’t know; probably I’m being overly sensitive, but just a thought… still hard to see those pics when I know what is truly being captured and I wonder what the true purpose of showing it is.

This day does not get easier with the passage of time.
Despite the sun and the crisp fall air today, I still have the very same ache I had seven years ago. To be sure, it is not as sharp or desperate, but it is still there. And a part of me hopes it never leaves for then maybe I would start to forget. And we must NEVER forget.

As a city girl, I’ve been feeling somewhat marginalized and looked down upon. Thanks for showing pics of Ordinary Americans in the big cities. xo

The one with the fliers/pictures of the missing was the one that got me.
