I can personally not see why anyone would want to relive the deaths of thousands in such a morbid way, but I know many that do. I cannot bring myself to watch the footage of that sad day dispassionately, even after five years. I say let us learn the lessons of that day, honor the fallen in our memories, and do right by them and work much harder towards bringing their killers to justice. I don't need this constant bombardment by the media, designed to play on my feelings to be saddened again by the events of those days. I merely have to close my eyes and remember the vivid details that have been etched permenantly in my mind.
I will spend this weekend practicing my horeback riding skills, so that if I am ever in Afghanistan or Pakistan I might be able to use them if needed to chase the sorry hides of Osama Bin Laden and associates down if they are ever found. I will personally volunteer for that mission if it should ever become a reality. This is how I will honor the memory of my fallen countrymen. Who will join me?
Blessed is the Lord which teachest my hands to war against my enemies.(Psalms)
