I remember where I was on this day 6 years. I was working for a moving company. I remember looking up in the sky seeing no planes at all. One of my Ninjutsu instructors had just moved to New York City just a couple of months before, he was on a ferry heading toward the island, and got stuck somewhere else for a couple days. Later that week I went to Ohio to train with An-Shu Stephen K. Hayes. During that weekend we learned not only how beat the daylights out of people, but we also covered compassion and as Buddha said "Only love can defeat hate."
It's great that we all came together on that day, it was scary for all of us. Sadly, the main villian behind that is still out there, roaming free and we are stuck fighting in a country that had nothing to do with it. Don't get me wrong I support the troops, I just don't agree with how the War on Terror is being managed. We should have focused more on the Taliban and Al Qadea, than Saddam, but it's too late to do anything about it now.
Let's not forget those who died that day for no reason except those that are in the mind of a madman.
