Um, Life?

Thu Jun 25 01:41:13 PM MDT 2026 Today feels like there are so many difficult things going on, and I don’t know how to even do that! It’s annoying at least, but what am I supposed to do about it? I don’t know. Life will always be what it will be and that’s all there is to it. I mean, come on. If I had the ability to make this life listen to me, do you honestly think I would be here thinking about it all? I highly doubt it. There’s nothing in this life that will make me want to understand it less than someone in my face yelling at me telling me everything will be “fine.” Yeah, that doesn’t fly for me. Not at all.

Never Forget

 

Bad Dreams

So I’m having nightmares from the attacks on the 11th. I keep dreaming that I’m back in High School and I’m trying to warn people about the attacks that are about to take place. But no one will listen to me. I’ve hard of survivors guilt, but I wasn’t there…can that still be true if you weren’t there? I don’t know. But something is making me dream about these things and I don’t want to dream about them anymore!

September 11, 2001

Woke up this morning to the news on the TV. It appeared a small plane had crashed into the World Trade Center (one of the towers) in New York. I went to school thinking nothing of it. That’s when the unexpected happened. On my way to school, another plane hit the other tower. A jetliner. New York was under attack. Needless to say school kinda froze at that point. That’s all anyone was talking about. We gathered around the instructors computer and watched and read the headlines on the internet. The news was putting out information as quickly as they could about the terrorist attacks. Then there was the Pentagon. Another airplane crashed into the Pentagon. I don’t know how serious that one was. We gathered in another classroom where they got a TV working. We watched as the World Trade Center (both towers) came crashing down. So many people died today. I can’t even fathom it. What a terrible day to be alive.
