9/11......

My Thought for this Day.........And on this day in 2001 our innocence was forever wiped away. And we saw buildings crumble, and bodies fall from the sky and we were horrified. The United States of America had been attacked and in this we saw unity. And we were One. For a short while, we were One. And then once again we became me and there was no more us. Our selfishness rose strong and our vista became narrow and we attacked one another with viciousness and self centered entitlement. And we marched and we protested and we threw bilious verbiage around as if it were everyday conversation. How short our memory. Our seams are being ripped, our coherence is gone and in this we blindly grope for fault, and it is never ours. Own it America; you can not fix what you don't acknowledge.
