Man how time flies....

Me and my mom were watching a telelvison show that was airing on the National Geographic channel that talked about 9/11 which this coming September will have been 10 years since that happened also yesterday was 6 years since Katrina which if you know me is near and dear to my heart.  But the concept of time is crazy of course we all have birthday's where we get older supposedly the old we get the wiser we get sometimes I think this is true then there are other times I think maybe not...As I looked back I thought about what I was doing 10 years ago....To give you a picture of what I was like here is me with my two best friends Jennifer at the beach with my family...
We look really happy and carefree which is the truth we really were that way just enjoying life.I was a freshman in High School 10 years ago. I played volleyball loved going to church hanging out with my group of close friends and hanging out with my best friends. My favorite place at the time and still is till this day was the beach. We were growing up and learning life lessons having fun and just enjoying being teenagers. I will never forget the day that happened I remember the entire day I remember what I said and what happened as I have gotten older that day sticks with me. I remember hearing about and thinking someone was talking about a movie trailer...they said no it was real not until I saw it on TV did I believe it. I will never forget it things after that changed here in the country we lived in after that things were different. I knew people who had family members and even I had friends who were part of branches of the service who went off to fight an evil we hardly new anything about. Sercuity in airports and transists would never be the same it would be tighter. Fear would have a different face...loss would mean something different,but we as americans would become more patriot more proud to be what this country stands for and we would rally around each other to help and support each other through such horrific things. 10 years seems just like yesterday to me but yet still so far away its sometimes is fuzzy but still just as clear as day. Since then I went on to graduate high school and go on to college and then graduate college, make new friends experince new things. Things change people change and time moves on 10 years is a long time and lots of this happen but time moves on....
Until next time....
