9/11

This year I felt a lot different about the 9/11 anniversary. It's not that I didn't care before, but for some reason this year I felt a lot more connected to what happened. I had tons of emotions running through me. At first is was sadness of course watching the memorial on TV, but then I started to feel anger. I thought, "How dare I sulk around with the minuscule problems that I have after seeing what these people have gone through."

I realize though, that it is okay to have problems and feel down sometimes, that's just part of living. But I do need to try to cherish everyday (which I feel I have been doing lately). Not necessarily in the mindset of "living each day as your last" because I feel that's a little extreme, but just noticing the beauty and positivity in the world EVERYDAY even if I'm not feeling great. Making that effort.
