I know what you guys mean .. I went to O'ahu on sunday and just getting to the next island is like going to another country ... I had to show my ID everywhere and got searched almost before entering every door ... I was sighing and stuff and thinking to myself "geez, I am sooo over this!"
Then, last night I was reading the Reader's Digest .. they had little articles about individuals, everyday people, who became heroes - some giving their life ... my focus wasn't so much on the act of terrorism but rather the families and friends - and perfect strangers - who were affected ...
My heart still goes out everyone, American and non-American, whose lives were touched ...
