Sorry, but this is kind of a long blog. When the night dwindles down to the time I should sleep, I start blabbering gibberish.



So unless it pertains to football, I usually don't comment on current events here. But it being the one year anniversary of that now infamous day, 9/11 will not likely be forgotten. What was I doing that day? I believe I had cut down my hours working at Cisco because I woke up to the phone ringing; my Aunt from the Philippines calling. By that time, the attack had happened hours earlier. That morning, I think, my cousin had left from the Bay Area to go back East to New York where she lives. She had with her her children (my neice and nephew). No one could get a hold of her because apparently, they wouldn't land her plane. In any case, when my aunt called, she said the Twin Towers were bombed. And at that time, I really didn't think anything of it. I thought it was similar to the bombing a couple years ago. I was wrong. When I turned on the television I was dumbfounded. What the hell happened!? Well we all know now what happened, and I'm sure we all shared the same feelings and thoughts.



So now what do we do? I don't know. For me at least, life for the most part hasn't changed as dramatically as I thought it would. Is that a good thing or a bad thing? I don't know.



What am I doing talking about this? I don't know, either. All I know is that 9/11 should be remembered and not recognizing all the aspects of it - the sadness that it produced, the anger that it fueled, the unity that it inspired - would not be good of me. Even if it's just a little blurb, I thought I should mention it. And thinking about it, life is pretty good. So, enjoy, my friends.
