9/11

 
I was young when September 11 happened, and still quite unaware about the world. I came home from school that day and had no idea what had happened until my mom had informed me of the tragic incident. I have relatives living in New York and my aunt worked close to the World Trade Center. She was so worried, and I was so unbearably sad. I was sad about the lives lost and the lives thrown into chaos because of this. Those terrorists truly struck fear into everyone's hearts. Every person killed, was a child of someone's, a parent perhaps, a friend, a sister, a brother or a lover. 

However, life goes on. Time goes on and the world keeps revolving. It's difficult to live in the past, because negative emotions consume the positive ones. It's hard, but the loved ones would want us to live on. In their memory. 

Keep walking forward, but never forget.
