I am going to take a break from all this for the next 24 hours.

I remarked to my wife that not a single day has gone by since 9/11 where it didn’t enter my thoughts at least once.

It kind of staggered me to realize that. Amazing. I feel just as angry about it today as I did back then, it is as if every time it comes up, a scab is ripped off.

It seems like every single thing I read or hear irritates me or pisses me off about it.

Tomorrow, I will remember those who died on 9/11 and their families.

I will mourn the loss of our military personnel who have given their lives so that the battle is fought on foreign shores, and not here at home.

I will feel the anger towards those who perpetrated 9/11 and their apologists, and pray to God for the strength to come to terms with it, find inner peace and someday, perhaps, even forgive them.

I will remind myself yet again that there is evil in the world, that evil and aggression are attracted to weakness in the way sharks are attracted to blood. Whether we were weak or not isn’t really the main issue, it is that we were perceived as such. And we still are. And liberals perpetuate it, both knowingly and unknowingly through their infuriating inability and refusal to understand or accept reality, and their unshakeable belief in utopian ideals.
