I was not of the generation of Iran and Afghanistan, I served prior to that time, during the Vietnam War, but one thing has always remained the same, we can't take our freedom and everything it means, for granted, freedom isn't free. It seems normal and natural and we have always lived with it, but every second of my life has been paid for by someone else who died making it so.
I find myself falling into the trap of being "tired of hearing" about what 9/11 means and what happened and that is so wrong.
I read an article yesterday where a college student, basically, was saying it shouldn't be taught, or it should be dumb-ed down, so it wouldn't effect his generation as hard.
It made me mad, it made me think we need to push it harder, to some how make "his" generation understand, they get to do what they do and think or say what they do, because somebody before them made it possible.
So bring the 9/11 news on, bring it hard and make it real so we don't have a new news story for this generation.
