I'm not sure if this is in the right place, though I hope there is a place for it somewhere.
Today in New Zealand its the 11th September.
I wanted to make a note for anyone to give their thoughts, or anyone who just wanted a moment to remember those who arent around today.
In New Zealand, we were.... lucky.. enough, not to be a part of this day, there arent many of us, honestly, who have people in USA, and considerably less who had anyone they really knew, lost. I remember the week before, I was watching a movie on TV that was made to look like a 'real life' news report on aliens landing on earth. When 911 came about I turned the tv on see what I thought was another movie the same, about a tragedy in USA. At first I barely glanced at it, then I watched, thinking it was well done and I got interested. The moment I realised that it was real, I logged online to find many of my friends not logged in, and those that were, were either too upset to talk, or in a state of shock.
I felt really bad for thinking it was a movie, but I feel worse for anyone over there who lost friends or family to everything that happened. Tonight and tomorrow America as a whole will be in both mine and my daughters thoughts.
