9/11

Being the very emotional person I am I have cried a total of 4 times today (though I'm not gonna lie half of them where not 9/11 related), and I have gotten to the point where I can't watch 9/11 documentaries without breaking down into tears. While I was very young when this happened, and wasn't really affected by it, I still feel so much sympathy for everyone who was affected by this.

I barely remember the day, to be honest, and I can't remember how I felt. But death always gets to me. It being so sudden and so many and so close to home as this was though of course it affects me more.

I sometimes found it hard keeping it together really.

It's a really conflicting emotional thing for me though. Because there's the sadness, and also the anger cause it reminds me of my conspiracy theorist dad. You know the type. The ones who thinks the government did this. When I remember these poor people and think of him using that in his anti-government stance...ugh.

I should stop talking for now so I don't get too upset.

I don't remember the events from back then, likely because I was still in first grade when it all happened.

(At the time the twin towers were struck, I was asleep)

 

But in any case, whoever died that day didn't deserve to.

It was after this event that a lot of things changed in the country; tighter airline checks, Homeland Security was created and a variety of other things.

 

------------

Going away from the Twin Towers, we have another reason to remember 9/11 down here (in Hawai'i): day that a Cat. 4 storm ripped our islands 23 years ago.

Certainly nowhere as much people killed, but definitive damage and rebuilding [i wasn't born yet though, so...]

 

(Rest of you can disregard this part, but as a sidenote)
