Subject: Is it just me?

I've been trying this week, really trying, to limit the amount of "Attack on America" coverage that I watch, because last week I was having such disturbing dreams. But, I want to be aware of what's going on, so I've just been very choosy about which programs I watch. Still, though, even though I've gone back to watching other shows, visiting my friends, even went on a teeny shopping spree at a local outlet mall, I just find myself having to stop and regroup every so often. I'm also trying not to get down or depressed, but I tell ya, when I looked at those mba letters, I couldn't think of a single thing except "Crying, and loudly, over deaths." No matter how hard or long I looked at them, only more death acros came to mind :(

This is a bad time of the year for me anyway. September, although it's my birthday month and I love celebrating my birthday, is also the birthday month of my first daughter, Cassandra Dawn, who was stillborn on Sept 18, 1993. She would have been 8 this year.

Maybe if I had a deep faith in something, it would help, I don't know. But I just find myself so deeply saddened, and angry, wondering "what's the point?". Yet, I guess the redeeming thing is, and it's the human spirit, I suppose, is even as I write this, I feel better. I at least feel like looking for the point.

Thanks for listening, guys.
