A mere 6 months later, people are getting back into their routines, living their lives in a normal fashion.
But isn't that what we should be doing? If we were to change our lifestyles because of 9/11, we'd be living in fear. And that's all that any terrorist wants. That's why they're called terrorists.
I'm not saying that we should act as if nothing happened, because we shouldn't. But we shouldn't change how we go about our daily business because of it. We should know and remember, and keep up-to-date with the current events. But we should not live our lives as if we're going to die any time now.
At least, that's how I feel. I'm not going to live in fear. I'm going to live my life the way I want, and be happy. If we don't move on, we'll never pull through.
