What's done is done, I see no need to dwell on it years later. Yeah sure, it was devestating..but it seems more like a grudge than a memoir to those who died. Like people are so mad at what happened they just can't let it go.
About 3,000 children lost a parent that day. Their average age was nine years old. These children have already lost 7 years that should have been spent with that parent. There are so many girls whose father did not or will not walk her down the aisle when she marries. There are so many guys who lost their real life hero, their dad. There are so many girls who can't enjoy the planning and shopping for prom dresses with their mom. And there are so many who will never see their mom or dad as they become a grandparent for the first time.

It may have been 7 years ago, but the effects will last for so very many for so very long.

Obviously you did not lose anyone that day, so for you moving on is not a struggle and challenge, but for so many who lost loved ones it is. And if there are those of us with compassion enough in our hearts to stop and think about them on the anniversary day of that event then it behooves you to be more considerate of the respect we choose to show them.

Yes, there are victims all over this globe today. There have been victims for thousands of years in the past and there will be victims for infinity, but because there was, is and will be victims does not mean we show any given group of victims disrespect or inconsideration.

Sometimes it better to leave a thread without a post at all if you are unable to respect the reverence of the subject.
