Today is 9-11.
On the other side of the world, it’s a day of mourning. A lot of people have lost their loved ones. It has reminded us that terrorism can happen even to the most modern city like New York. Ten years ago, I still remember having lunch with friends and family at home when the breaking news slammed into the background television. Instead of being happy, we were shocked and started calling our loved ones who were based there.
Today is 9-11. It has been ten years. Bin Laden is dead. Saddam is dead. The twin towers has been replaced with a monument. People have moved-on. Lessons have been learned. I got married. I gave birth to a boy who is now 2 years old.
Today is 9-11. It’s Sunday and it’s my birthday. I put on my favorite watercolor shirt and a pair of white capris. And even if I choose to be happy, I can still feel the vibe of mourning even if i’m on the other side of the world.
