if i could tell the world just one thing..

[shake_yo_monmon]

..it would be that we're all okay
and not to worry cuz worry wasteful
and useless in times like these
i won't be made useless
i won't be idle with despair
i will gather myself around my faith
for light does the darkness most fear

i thought about using this technology & oppurtunity to jabber, er, click-clack on my keyboard, on & on about the woe of me.
but why would i do that when i could remember and honor those who died, who stepped up, who survived, who saved four years ago today.

there's nothing i can say or do for these people, for you, for me, to change anything.
but i can take a moment out of my own little world inside my head,
and give my feelings, my hopes, my condolences, my deepest wishes to those and to everyone.
and to remember what people experienced physically, and what everybody felt emotionally,
everyday
and i'll smile to those passing by
and embrace those who i don't want to pass by me without knowing how much they mean to me.
and seize the moments
and repell sorrow and anger, because i know there are worse things, and passion and joy are the best defenses.

i hope everybody abides by these and similar principles so we'll all make a difference in this swirl of a world.
