I don't remember moving on

I'm not much of a TV watcher. I was surprised to learn today when I turned the TV on that I had missed the third year anniversary of 9/11. And I don't even feel bad about it.

Not to say it wasn't bad. For those it affected personally it can never be forgotten. For the rest of us it was a day unlike any other. But somehow I thought the day might mean more to more people. No one I know mentioned it. They had no reason to.

We all know what happened. Yet what we're left with is a symbol that grows more meaningless every time it's memory is exploited to mold public opinion. I'm more afraid of a government and media that will deliberately distort the facts to achieve it's goals than anything else at the moment.
