We have no control over when our own time on earth will be over. I just blogged on this idea myself because I was reflecting on whether life should be drudgery waiting for some future joy. Instead I conclude that today is the day I should live like it might be my last.Trifroghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05458900410953991996noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19402707.post-1145027975324118972006-04-14T10:19:00.000-05:002006-04-14T10:19:00.000-05:00As always thanks for sharing.

Stay strong and help them understand the impact of that day.<BR/><BR/>My sis-in-law was flying into NY city that day and had to have someone drive out to get her and co-workers back to Ohio.Erichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15903883660163304283noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19402707.post-1145027317647170962006-04-14T10:08:00.000-05:002006-04-14T10:08:00.000-05:00I think for a very long time 9/11 is going to be w...I think for a very long time 9/11 is going to be with us. The balance between security and civil freedoms are always going to be in question and I think we can all identify with the victims, the helplessness they were in and knowing they had limited time to make final calls. I remember the horror of the folks jumping out of the towers. I remember running 15 miles that day trying to understand what happened and realizing there is no understanding. When I was in the Marine Corps I was involved with conflict but at least I figured I had the edge. <BR/><BR/>TriSara, I hope you find joy and peace this easter weekend and find a way to celebrate life and enjoy your runs/swims/bike rides. There is also joy and happiness along with love in the world.Kurthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09518246431344307710noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19402707.post-1145025616126136582006-04-14T09:40:00.000-05:002006-04-14T09:40:00.000-05:00I remember that day..it was all over the news....w...I remember that day..it was all over the news....what was scary.for me..was that..i met up with my friend..and i told them about it.

I don't want to be any of those things, and yet 9/11 brings all of that out.greyhoundhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01177698669715595307noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19402707.post-1145008809675725022006-04-14T05:00:00.000-05:002006-04-14T05:00:00.000-05:00Even as a Canadian, I struggled with the transcrip...Even as a Canadian, I struggled with the transcripts.

I remember what I did that day, and that my husband was out of town, and that I slept on the couch that night. I remember. <BR/>The only thing that I am thankful for about that day is that no one I loved was a casualty of that day.BuckeyeRunnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16375077439519438301noreply@blogger.com
