10 years later...

It's amazing that I can see the pictures of 9/11 over and over

and every time, have the same reaction

disbelief

horror

extreme sadness

and disbelief again.

We were a nation shaken

But not broken

and 10 years later, as loved ones recite the names

of all they lost that day

I am still in disbelief

and overwhelmed with sadness.

But comforted knowing 

that we still are...

One nation, under God, indivisible,

with liberty and justice for all.
