Maybe tomorrow. I refuse to turn on my television to watch any of the documentaries, or commemoratives. People want to feel pity, and the media encourages this - but what does the media encourage people to do? It's mostly just a wailing, self-congratulating disaster documentary. I don't need to see this. It's not that I lack compassion. I am a native New Yorker; my grandmother used to work in the WTC. My cousin was transferred from there just a few weeks before the attacks. Another cousin attended school just blocks away. But I am sick of this. I wanted to write a post about this but just don’t feel up to it. Maybe tomorrow.
