THE 4TH ANNIVERSARY

Today's the anniversary of the September 11th attacks on America.  It doesn't really seem that long ago.  I don't spend a lot of time talking about it (or blogging about it) because I know so many other bloggers and media will do it justice much better than I can.  For me, that entire period is unavoidably linked with my own mother's death — she passed away just a few days before — and thus I am even more saddened at remembering that time.   The wounds are still raw, but since then I've become stronger and moved further forward much more than I ever thought possible.
