Hi there Cheryl.
I just read your post and it made me happy that my words touched you. I'm even more happy that many people have told me that my words described their own feelings to a T. You know, I was thinking about doing a third installment on this page tonight, it is sort of becoming a tradition for me to mark the anniversary of the 9/11 attacks. It is a difficult thing to do; to put down in words, the continuing process of marking each year that passes with my thoughts of that day and the real world events that follow it. I feel that by adding my thoughts annually, I am creating a public log that I can refer to and review, to make sure that I am in touch with our reality and that others like yourself can keep up with my feelings and analysis. Shit...it's almost therapeutic! But I'm gonna have to think about it some more. It is a daunting process requiring lots of effort and focus. So maybe I'll come back in September and just bang it out!

I just wanted to reply to you tonight and tell you that your name definitely sounds familiar. I wish you could send me a picture of you! I think I knew you. Did you have curly or wavey dirty blonde hair as a kid? I grew up on
E 85th bet L+M. I went to PS115, Bildersee and SSHS.

Lastly, I agree with your post too and relate to your frustration with other Americans that do not "get" it. So stay strong, stay involved and know that there are plenty of people out here that are on the same page as us. Afterall, patriotic Americans have the heart to deal with those that would threaten our ways of life and deal with these problems until the end. Everyone else can vote for the swiftboat guy, even if he has more waffles than IHOP.

Take care,

Mitch
