OK, I understand that that was a major tradegy, but why are people throwing salts on wombs. 9-11 happened 6 years ago, why are there still tributes and news articles and what nots? Can those affected please morn in peace?
There should be a limit to the number of years a tradegy can be remembered cause I really don't wanna be sitting watching tv 12 years from today and see a headline 'Remembering 9-11.........18 years ago'. I understand that it was a trying time for people. But I feel that it is time, for those not personally affected, to move on.
Maybe I am being harsh cause I was not personally affected. I know no one in New York and I've only been to New York once (like 11 months ago) so I can not personally relate.....BUT I can relate to Hurrican Katrina and I feel that that last tribute (for the 2nd year anniversary) should be the last. No one affected by Katrina or Rita will ever forget it so why keep advertising it. The same with 9-11. No one affected will ever forget that either.
Maybe the tributes is just someones way who wasn't personally affected to show their condolences, but it has been 6 yrs so if you haven't shown it by now, then don't worry about it.
My prayers goes out to all affected. It was really a tragedy..
I remember when it happened .....
Flashback..
I was in my dorm room (I was a freshman in college then) and I was about to get ready to go to my class. All of the sudden my tv flipped to the news where they showed the trade centers being attacked by planes. I was in awe. I must have stood there for about ten minutes watching it (cause they kept showing the attacks over and over again). At that time I was not completely aware of all that was going on cause the media is very biased and they portray stories to fit their interests. But I knew something. I remember my intro to engineering teacher made us do a report on why the building fell. (Like we had to talk about the structual beams and support and stuff) But still at that time I was not greatly concerned. It wasn't until five years later, or last year from now, that I seen Flight 93 (Or United 93.....I can't remember the name at this time) and I was deeply touched. All of my prayers and wishes went to those who lost.
So I understand, well somewhat understand, the hardships of those people, but maybe they don't want to be reminded of their losts over and over again by the news coverages and articles. Let them get through their trying times, because I promise you, (to) the media, that those affected don't need you to remind them.
God's Blessing to All
